METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF SELECTION OF BASKETBALL PLAYERS AT THE STAGE OF INITIAL TRAINING

Abstract

The article presents the theoretical justification of the developed methodology for selecting basketball players at the stage of initial training. It is noted that sports selection is the process of finding the most gifted children capable of achieving high results in a particular sport. It has been proven that dribbling in basketball is one of the complex coordination movements and for the successful mastery of performing exercises of complex coordination movements in the process of dribbling, the physical and psychophysiological characteristics of basketball players are important indicators. The results of observation and survey of successful mastery of complex coordination movements exercises in the process of dribbling the ball in basketball were analyzed.

The purpose of the article is to theoretically substantiate the methodology for selecting female basketball players at the stage of initial training.

The research methodology includes a systematic approach to identifying and analyzing the issue of selecting young female basketball players at the stage of initial training. The following methods were used in the research process: analysis of scientific and methodological literature; observation, questionnaires, pedagogical experiment.

Scientific novelty. Theoretical and practical justification in a comprehensive approach to studying the issue of selection in sports and theoretical justification of the developed methodology for selecting young basketball players aged 9–12 at the stage of initial training.

Conclusions. The developed methodology for selecting female basketball players at the initial training stage included three sets of exercises: improving basic types of dribbling; teaching complex coordination movements in the process of dribbling; solving individual tactical tasks using complex coordination movements in the process of dribbling. It should be noted that the developed difficulty algorithm assumed that training should begin with improving basic types of dribbling. It has been experimentally proven that including exercises lasting 15 to 30 minutes in each training session helps to increase the effectiveness of dribbling in competitive conditions and increase the effectiveness of the game.
