View through CrossRef
An important role in whole performance of volleyballers plays the anthropometric parameters. Anthropometric differences mostly define the position and the role of the players in the court.
The aim of this study was to determine the difference in some anthropometric parameters of young female volleyball players and young male volleyball players. This study assess 22 young boys volleyballer (17.1± 1.8 SD) and 25 young girls volleyballer (16.9 ± 1.9 SD) located in Tirana. Anthropometric measures assessed were: body-height, body-weight, body-waist circumference. Equipment used for measuring were digital scale with height rod (Health O meter professional scales) and flexible metric tape. Independent samples test and t-test were used to analyze quantitative data.
Boys had the mean and SD of body-height (177.95 ± 8.351) while girls showed the mean and SD (165.52 ± 6.593). In terms of body-weight, boys were presented with mean and SD (71.9 ± 8.608) while the girls had the mean and SD (62.39 ± 10.597). Boys displayed a mean value in waist-circumference (81.18 ± 5.413) while girls showed the mean and SD of (73.79 ± 7.475).
This research provided an original comparison of anthropometric measurement between boys and girls on young volleyball players where boys had larger mean of body-weight, body-height and body – waist circumference.
