Abstract

Background: Throwing velocity is one of the determinant scoring elements in handball. However, our knowledge of anthropometric factors and shoulder muscle strength among female players and how these affect throwing velocity is limited. Objective: This study aimed to assess the relationships between throwing velocity and the physical traits of anthropometric factors and shoulder muscle strength in female handball players. Methods: Nine elite female junior handball players (age 17.1 ± 1.7 years, body height 169.7 ± 3.8 cm, body mass 66.2 ± 6.8 kg, experience with handball 8.9 ± 1.7 years) participated in the study. Spearman's correlation coefficient was used to detect correlations between throwing velocity and shoulder internal rotator torque, explosive strength deficit, and anthropometric parameters of the upper limb. Results: Our results showed significant correlations between throwing velocity and upper limb length (r = .82) and hand length (r = .68); however, no significant correlations were observed between throwing velocity and shoulder internal rotator peak torque, explosive strength deficit, lean body mass of upper limb, and other anthropometric parameters. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that the lengths of the upper limb and hand are the two main elements that affect throwing velocity in female handball players; this could be employed in talent identification.
青少年女子手球运动员人体测量和力量变量与最大投掷速度的关系-一项初步研究
背景:投球速度是手球得分的决定因素之一。然而,我们对女性运动员的人体测量因素和肩部肌肉力量以及这些因素如何影响投掷速度的了解是有限的。目的:探讨女子手球运动员投掷速度与人体特征、肩肌力量的关系。方法:9名优秀青少年女子手球运动员(年龄17.1±1.7岁,身高169.7±3.8 cm,体重66.2±6.8 kg,手球经验8.9±1.7年)参与研究。使用Spearman相关系数检测投掷速度与肩部内旋器扭矩、爆炸强度缺陷和上肢人体测量参数之间的相关性。结果:投掷速度与上肢长度(r = 0.82)、手长(r = 0.68)呈显著相关;然而,投掷速度与肩部内旋体峰值扭矩、爆炸强度缺陷、上肢瘦体质量和其他人体测量参数之间没有显著相关性。结论:上肢长度和手长度是影响女子手球运动员投掷速度的两个主要因素;这可以用于人才识别。
