Comparison Of The Senses Of Balance And Proprioception Between Some Individual And Team Sports Players (A Comparative Study)

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to design a test to measure (proprioception)Identifying the level of the senses of balance and proprioception of some individual and team sport players, identifying the relationship between the senses of balance and proprioception among some individual sport players, identifying the relationship between the senses of balance and proprioception among some team sport players, identifying the relationship between the senses of balance and proprioception among some individual and team players. The researchers used the descriptive approach using the survey method and correlational studies as a better method to solve the research problem due to its suitability and the nature of the current study. The research community included a group of local club players in Iraq. The sample included 40 players, 10 of whom were excluded from conducting exploratory experiments. They distributed 20 players who represented individual games, including 5 table tennis players, 5 tennis players and 5 athletics players and 5 badminton players and 20 players represented the team games, including 5 futsal players, 5 volleyball players, 5 basketball players and 5 football players. One of the most important results reached by the researcher is that: The test designed by researchers to measure (proprioception) has proven its efficiency, players of individual and team games have a high level of balance and proprioception, there is no significant correlation between balance and proprioception for individual games, there is a significant correlation between balance and proprioception of team games, there is no significant correlation between individual games and team games in the variable of proprioception, and there is a significant correlation between individual games and team games in the equilibrium variable. One of the most important recommendations recommended by the researchers is that: Adopting the (AlNWYNI) test for receiving proprioception in measuring athletes in research and studies, paying attention to the development of the senses related to the sports aspect in terms of measurement and training, paying attention to the psychological aspect, like all other aspects of tactical, physical and skill training, develop training programs that take into account the efficiency of sensory receptors, including proprioception and balance, conducting similar research on different samples in the research variables, and conducting a comparative study between male and female athletes in the variable
