Abstract
This study was conducted to determine some selected bio-motorical properties and reaction time characteristics of Turkish hockey players. The study was applied on 10 male and 7 female teams participating in the Turkish Hockey Federation 2015-2016 season Super League and participated in the study of 76 female and 119 male elite hockey players. Age, height, body weight, body mass index, vertical jump, anaerobic power, right and left hand grip strength, leg strength, back strength, flexibility, balance, and visual reaction time measurements were taken from the research group. The anaerobic power parameter was determined by the formula from the vertical jump measurement, the flexibility parameter by the sit-in test, and the balance parameter by the flamingo balance test. SPSS 22.0 program was used for analysis of the data. In the comparison of the two groups, independent samples T-test, and for multiple group comparison one-way analysis of variance and LSD correction test and Pearson correlation test were used.
