The Effect of (MetCon) Training to Developing the Velocity Power and Defensive Follow-Up for Young Basketball Players

Abstract

The researchers decided to go into this study by applying a training method represented by (MetCon)
training for the purpose of giving a clear and accurate scientific indication for coaches to develop these
abilities because their development will contribute to reaching high skill performance through upgrading
the physical capabilities and skill in defensive performance required to perform during play. The research
aims to prepare (MetCon) exercises to develop rapid strength and defensive follow-up for young basketball
players. And learn about the impact of MetCon training in developing rapid strength and defensive followup
for young basketball players. The researchers hypothesized that there is a positive effect of (MetCon)
training in developing rapid force and defensive follow-up for young basketball players. The researcher used
the experimental method in the method of (equal control and experimental groups) of pre and post-test for
its suitability to the nature of the research, and the research community was determined by the young Hilla
club basketball players for the year (2019-2020), whose number is (16) players. The research sample was
represented by (12) players who were deliberately selected from the research community and distributed
randomly into two groups, a control group and a group of MetCon training, and the most important conclusion
was that the MetCon training has a positive effect in developing rapid strength and defensive follow-up for
young basketball players.
