Abstract
The study was conducted on a sample of 32 volleyball players who participated in the cadet volleyball camp. Five (5) tests will be performed from the space of body parameters, namely: Body height (ATV), Body weight (ATT), Arm span (RAR), Maximum one-hand reach from the place (MD1RM), Maximum two-hand reach from the place (MD2RM) and they will be treated as dependent variables. The following will be
reported in the area of specific motor abilities (4): Maximum reach in spike (MDSM), Maximum reach in the block from place (MDBLM), Maximum reach in the block from run up (MDBLZ), and Forward bend on the bench (PRKL) will be treated as sample predictor variables. The research technique, observation with recording was used to collect data. The obtained data it was processed using descriptive statistics procedures. ANOVA revealed differences between samples using a univariate approach. The effects of body parameters on the performance of specific motor tests were calculated using regression analysis at the significance level of p=.05. Three (3) of the total (5) five characteristic body parameters were found to have a significant impact on the performance of specific motor tests in volleyball.
Keywords: motor skills, physical characteristics, volleyball.
