This study was conducted to examine the effect of 5 days (25 hours) of ski training on balance performance for individuals who have never had ski training before. A total of 84 volunteers participated in the study, 42 of them men and 42 of them women without any health problems. After the pre-test balance measurements of the control and experimental group, ski training was given to the experimental group for 5 days in Erciyes Ski Center. One day after ski training was completed, the post-test measurements of the control and experimental groups were made and the results were noted. Biodex Balance System was used for balance measurement in the study. According to the results obtained, static APSI values of the experimental group after ski training were better than before and this difference was significant (p < 0.05), dynamic OSI, APSI and MLSI values were better than before and these differences were significant (p < 0.01, p < 0.01, p < 0.05, respectively). These results show that skiing activity can be recommended especially for the development of dynamic balance performance. On the other hand, it seems that ski training contributes more to the static balance performance in the direction of A-P.

Bu çalışmanın amacı erkek sporcularda denge performansının belirlenmesinde flamingo denge testi ile biodex denge sistemi arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya herhangi bir sağlık problemi bulunmayan 15 erkek sporcu (20,67 ± 2,87 yaş) gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Çalışmada denge ölçümleri için biodex denge sistemi (BDS) ve flamingo denge testi (FDT) kullanılmıştır. Gönüllülerin BDS ve FDT ölçümleri nondominant ayak üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin normal dağılım göstergeleri Shapiro-Wilk testi, Q-Q Plots ve histogram grafikleriyle incelenmiş ve verilerin normal dağılıma uymadığı tespit edilmiştir. Verilerin istatistiki analizinde Spearman-Rho testi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan sporcuların BDS parametreleri ile FDT skorları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmemiştir (p>0,05). BDS parametrelerinin (B-OSI, B-APSI, B-MLSI) aralarında ise yüksek düzeyli pozitif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p<0,01). Yapılan çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlar ve literatürdeki bulgular ışığında, fonksiyonel denge testleri ile mekanik (kuvvet veya diğerleri) platformlardaki denge sonuçları arasında ilişkinin oldukça zayıf olduğu görülmektedir. Bu nedenle flamingo denge testi gibi diğer fonksiyonel denge testlerinin geçerliliği ve güvenilirliği konusunda daha kapsamlı araştırmaların yapılması gerekliliği ortaya çıkmaktadır. Ayrıca testler arasında sistematik veya tutarlı bir ilişki olmadığı için flamingo denge testinin hangi noktayı (ya da alt bileşeni) değerlendirdiğinin ve hangi parametrelerle ilişkisi olduğunun belirlenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu unsurların daha iyi tanımlanabilmesi için araştırmaların bu yönde artırılması önerilmektedir.

This study has been conducted with the aim of evaluating the physical characteristics of children at the age group of 9-15, who play football at amateur level, in accordance with age.The domain of the study consists of amateur male football players(n=82) who play actively in Kayseri and have been selected with random sampling method. In order to investigate the effects of football training on physical parameters, some tests selected from Eurofit test battery such as hand grip strength, plate tapping, 30 seconds of sit-ups, flamingo, standing broad jump, sit and reach, 20 meters shuttle run, as well as 20 meters sprint and anthropometric measurements (height, weight and body mass index) were applied to the subjects. The statistical evaluation of data is based on 0.05 significance value; after the descriptive statistical and One-Way ANOVA tests have been applied, Duncan has been used as second level test in order to evaluate the differences between the groups. According to the results, some substantial differences(p<0,05) between the players with respect to height(cm), weight(kg) left-handed grip strength(kg), right-handed grip strenth(kg), plate tapping(sec), flexibility(cm), standing broad jumping(cm), 20-meter-shuttle run test (ml/kg/min), 20meters-sprint were observed while no crucial differences(p>0,05) have been found with respect to parameters such as BMI(%), sit-ups (30 sec/times), flamingo balance test(errors).It has been determined after the evaluation of the results that the differences associated with the physical properties of the footballers between 9 and 15 years old affect the development of the players in accordance with their ages and that sports contribute positively to their physical properties in terms of development level and time.
