Abstract
Aim. The article deals with the improvement of speed-strength qualities and jumping abilities in young basketball players by means of circuit training. Materials and methods. The pedagogical experiment took place from October 2017 to February 2018 during trainings of young basketball players born in 2004–2005. The experiment was conducted at the premises of Slobodskoy sports school in Kirov region. 20 male basketball players participated in the study, each group (experimental and control) consisted of 10 persons. To conduct our study, we used the following methods: theoretical analysis and review of scientific literature; pedagogical assessment; ascertaining and formative pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. Results. As a result of Abalakov test, we registered improvement of the parameters studied both in the experimental and control groups by 4 and 2.3 cm respectively. The average values of the standing long jump improved by 15.8 cm in the control group and by 22.5 cm in the experimental group. The average values of the 30-meter running test improved by 0.27 sec in the control group and by 0.38 sec in the experimental group. The results registered for the standing triple jump were better by 23.2 cm in the control group and 48.4 cm in the experimental group (P < 0.05). Conclusion. The results obtained allow us to suppose that young basketball players need to improve their speed-strength qualities using the method of circuit training, which also contributes to the development of jumping abilities.
