The effect of shooting training on the development of the shot hit rate for basketball players

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of shooting training for young basketball players and the development of shot percentage of special shot training. 30 male students-athletes participated in this study voluntarily participated in College Teams (age= 14,82 ± 1,0; height= 183,44 ± 6,13; body weight= 68,06 ± 5,38). Subjects were divided into 2 groups, consisting of continuous shooting training (experiment) (n = 15) and general basketball training group (control) (n = 15).Both training groups were subjected to a training program for 10 weeks, 4 days in a week. In this study, 60 minutes of normal basketball training plus shot training and 100-110 minutes of normal basketball training were applied to the control group. During the 10-week period, two-points jump shot (2000 pieces), three-points jump shot (2000 pieces)   and in the Zig-Zag run (two-points jump shot-1000 pieces , three-points jump shot-1000 pieces) and totally 6000 shots used as moving. There was no statistically significant difference in the pre-test results between the control and the experimental group in the study, and 2-points, 3-points and zig-zag between the control and the experimental group. However there is a statistically significant difference in all parameters in the final test. In the study, 2-points, 3-points and zig-zag drills 2 and 3-points shots pre-test and post-test results were found to be statistically significant in the experimental group. As a result; general basketball training has shown little improvement in young basketball players' shooting performance, but it has been proven that the long shot training with accurate shot technique training has significantly improved shot performance.
