Abstract

This research paper aims to investigate and compare the anthropometric characteristics of Volleyball and Football players aged 16-18 years. Anthropometric measurements play a vital role in understanding the physical attributes of athletes, which can impact their performance and suitability for specific sports. By comparing the anthropometric profiles of Volleyball and Football players within the same age group, this study aims to provide valuable insights into the unique physical demands of each sport and their influence on player selection and training programs. The study utilized a cross-sectional design, collecting data on height, weight, body composition, and selected body proportions. Statistical analysis and comparison between the two groups were conducted to highlight potential differences. The findings of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the specific physical requirements of Volleyball and Football and assist in optimizing talent identification and athlete development processes.
