Abstract

The research aims to design proposed training with Battle Rope ropes to know their effect on some physical abilities (motor speed, muscle strength, ability, coordination, flexibility) and the level of solo play performance for female speedball players. The researchers used the experimental approach by following the experimental design for one experimental group using pre- and post-measurement. The research sample was selected intentionally from female speedball players under 15 years old in the Giza region and registered with the Egyptian Speedball Federation for the training season 2023-2024 AD, the total sample was (22) young women who were divided into (10) young women to conduct the exploratory study, and (12) young women as the basic study sample, The two researchers applied the proposed training as part of the basic training unit for a period of (8) weeks, at a rate of (3) units per week, with a total of (24) training units.

The important results of Battle Rope training were represented in its positive effect on the physical abilities under study (motor speed, muscle strength, ability, coordination, flexibility), in addition to the positive effect on the level of solo playing performance in its four positions for female speedball juniors. The researchers recommend the importance of using Battle Rope training to develop the physical, skill, psychological abilities of male and female speedball juniors and for different age groups, in addition to directing the results of this study to speedball coaches for the possibility of benefiting from them.
