The research titled "Playing Ability in Women's Hockey: Fitness and Kin Anthropometry Predictors" aims to investigate the factors that contribute to playing ability in women's hockey, specifically focusing on fitness levels and kin anthropometry. Fitness and physical abilities play a crucial role in determining an athlete's performance in sports. In the context of women's hockey, understanding the relationship between fitness parameters and playing ability is essential for player development and training programs. The study examines various fitness indicators, including cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength and power, agility, and speed, to identify their impact on playing ability. By analyzing these parameters, researchers aim to pinpoint the specific physical attributes that are most influential in enhancing performance in women's hockey.
In addition to fitness, the research also explores the role of kin anthropometry as a predictor of playing ability. Kin anthropometry involves the measurement and analysis of body composition, proportions, and dimensions. By examining variables such as height, weight, body fat percentage, and limb length, the study seeks to determine if specific anthropometric characteristics are associated with superior performance in women's hockey.
The research employs a quantitative approach, collecting data from a sample of women hockey players of varying skill levels. Through a series of tests, assessments, and performance evaluations, the researchers gather comprehensive data to examine the relationship between fitness, kin anthropometry, and playing ability.
The findings of this study will provide valuable insights for coaches, trainers, and athletes in developing targeted training programs that focus on improving the identified fitness parameters and optimizing kin anthropometry factors to enhance playing ability in women's hockey. Ultimately, this research aims to contribute to the advancement of training methodologies and talent identification strategies in women's hockey.
