“…For example in football, some studies argue that females’ performance decreases due to their inferior athletic, technical, and tactical football ability conditions ( Konstadinidou and Tsigilis, 2005 ; Chalabaev et al, 2008 ). In handball, a study by Zapartidis et al (2011) on the motor abilities of young male and female players, showed that in the older age groups (13–13.9, 14–14.9 and 15–15.9 years), besides having the same performance demands and training experience, males performed better than females in motor abilities that are important for handball, with sport-specific training appearing to be not sufficient to attenuate these sex differences in motor performance. Moreover, in relation to psychological factors, an interesting recent research in professional tennis relative to performance feedback ( Wozniak, 2012 ), found that men exhibit a “hot hand” effect after doing well in a tournament than can last for several further tournaments, while females are affected by only their performance in their last tournament.…”

“…The velocity of the ball throw appears to be a strong agent of differentiation of performance for the boys even under the age of 12 years old. A recent research, that 33 boys and 41 girl were studied with an average of 12, 5 years of age, with the same athletic experience, showed that whilst the girls presented similar results to the length without impetus, the 30 meters velocity and the aerobic skill to the boys, however they lacked significantly in the velocity of the ball throw compares to the boys (Zapartidis et al, 2011). During adolescence, the development rate of the muscular mass of the boys is double to the girls' for the upper limbs and only slightly larger for the lower limbs (Βeunen & Malina, 1988).…”

“…Malina et al, (2010) did not find significant differences between the 12 year old girls and boys athletes in velocity and handgrip. It is generally accepted that up to the age of 12, the difference in performance between boys and girls are relatively small but increase near the age of 13 years old (Malina et al, 2010;Malina et al, 2005;Zapartidis et al, 2011). The velocity of the ball throw appears to be a strong agent of differentiation of performance for the boys even under the age of 12 years old.…”

“…The results obtained depend on the rate of acceleration, power, and the specific nature of the neuromuscular system (Cunningham et al., 2013; Habibi et al., 2010; Marques, Gil, Ramos, Costa, & Marinho, 2011). Despite numerous scientific reports that discussed the speed of athlete’s moving over the distance of 30 m (Dudkowski, Rokita, Majorowski, Chmura, & Błach, 2012; Silva, Petroski, & Gaya, 2013; Zapartidis, Nikolaidou, Vareltzis, & Kororos, 2011), few scientific reports have analyzed the acceleration phase of this run over the first 5 m in young basketball or handball players with differentiation between the results with respect to age, gender, or sport.…”
