Background: It is important to analyze demographic characteristics to enhance the performance of the block jump skill based on the kinetics domain.
Objectives: For this reason, the objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between jump height and the demographic characteristics of young volleyball players while they perform block jumps based on kinetics.
Methods: In this particular study, twenty-one young male volleyball players were selected as participants. Each player was instructed to perform 3 block jumps on a force plate using maximum power, and their jump height was estimated using a kinetics method. Moreover, the players' demographic features like height and weight were also measured for the analysis. To determine the relationship between the players’, jump height and demographic characteristics, a linear one-way regression statistical method was used.
Results: There was no significant relationship found between between height and weight (demographic characteristics) and jump height. However, height had a higher factor loading with jump height, indicating that it showed more correlation with jump height than weight (p≤ 0.05).
Conclusions: To enhance the jumping and landing abilities of elite volleyball players, it is suggested that coaches, players, and specialists assess biomechanical performance through various means. Demographic characteristics can serve as useful indicators to improve performance. A thorough analysis of these indicators can significantly aid in achieving success in volleyball.
