The effect of SAQ exercises on developing some Coordination abilities of offensive foot Movements for young basketball players

Abstract

The problem of the research centered on the weakness of the offensive footwork of young basketball players, despite their importance and their direct connection to offensive skills, due to not giving sufficient time in training and focusing on developing them during the training units using modern training methods by most coaches. Raising the training level of any player cannot be achieved. Whether physical, skillful or tactical, without developing the skills of offensive footwork. Given the great importance of foot movements in offensive performance and the player’s fluidity of movement through changing speed and direction with Coordination abilities, the researcher decided to research this study by applying modern training methods represented by (S.A.Q training) in order to provide an accurate scientific study to develop these abilities because their development will contribute to reaching an increase in the skill level through smooth performance in executing technical skills while playing.  The research aims to prepare S.A.Q exercises to develop some harmonic abilities for the offensive foot movements of young basketball players and to identify the impact of the S.A.Q exercises to develop some harmonic abilities for the offensive foot movements of young basketball players.
