A statistical comparative analysis of anthropometric profile between two volleyball player’s teams

Abstract

In this work, a comparison from a mathematical and statistical point of view of the somatic qualities is attempted of volleyball players from two female teams aged between 12 and 16 years. It highlights the similarities or differences in the values recorded following the anthropometric measurements. Currently, the execution speed, explosive force and reaction speed are increasing during the volleyball game and it is necessary to train specific anatomical segments required for the execution of the technical elements necessary to perform the attack during the volleyball game. It is important to compare the height, height with raised arms or the arm span in players from two teams who want to achieve performances in the volleyball competitions organized by Romania Volleyball Federation. Fisher and Student tests will be used for comparative analysis of the somatic qualities of the players. The findings of the present study indicate that the anthropometric profile of players from Team CVH Junior Iasi is significantly better than that of the team CSS Botoșani.
