| Abstract | ||
| The research aims at : - Recognizing the factors of the special physical fitness elements for the players of Iraqi elite clubs . - Constructing a battery of special physical fitness elements tests for the players of elite handball clubs. The research fields includes : - Human scope : The players of (Al-Futwa, Al-Karkh, Al-Jaish, Al-Shurtta and Al-Kufa )clubs. - Time scope : The period between (15/11/2011) to (1/4/2012) - Place scope : Indoor halls of (Al-Futwa, Al-Karkh, Al-Jaish, Al-Shurtta and Al-Kufa )clubs. The researcher adopted descriptive methodology with the correlation style for its convenience to the nature of the research. The research community has been represented by the players of Iraqi elite tournament clubs (term 2011-2012) which were (12) clubs . While the research sample included (70) players distributed into five clubs (Al-Futwa, Al-Karkh, Al-Jaish, Al-Shurtta and Al-Kufa ) , who represent (14) players for each club after excluding goal keepers. The researcher used a questionnaire , tests and the content analysis as a tool of collecting data. The researcher used the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, standard error of the arithmetic mean, coefficient of skewenss (Person), and the factor analysis by the method of principle components of Hottling and using orthogonal rotation. The researcher concluded the following : 1. The Factor analysis by using the orthogonal rotation performed on (24) tests of special physical fitness representing the six assumption factors of the special physical fitness. showed five factors accepted in terms of factor acceptance ,which were :The first factor is the transitional speed factor, the second is the explosive force factor for the legs, the third was the explosive force factor of the arms, the fourth was the fitness factor, and the fifth factor was the force factor discriminated by speed. 2. The special physical fitness battery has been extracted in the light of its accepted factors which units achieve highest saturations on the factors ,as follows: a- Test of 300m. run. b- Test of the throwing medicine ball of 3 kilos . c- Test of push up until exhaustion . d- Test 2000 m run . e- Test o vertical jump . 3. The selected five units of the special physical fitness were considered pure measurements just because their saturations on the other factors were about to be zero . This result confirms the decrease of the inter correlation among tests. The researcher recommended : - Using the battery of the special physical fitness in the practical tests to recognize the training program efficiency at the end of the special physical preparation for Iraqi handball clubs. | ||
