“…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.…”
