Or does it need to modify the axes of the curricula through an organized realistic evaluation?. Therefore, the researchers sought to choose some standardized tests related to physical and skill performance, and thus it is possible to conduct more than one test within a specific period of time to identify the players’ achievement according to these indicators. The research community was determined by the players of the National Center for the Care of Sports Talent in Handball in Baghdad. Their number reached (45) players and the research sample was chosen intentionally and their number was (15) players from the research community. The researchers concluded that there is a significant impact of the training curricula provided to the research sample through the apparent results of the tests conducted on the sample, and they recommended conducting similar studies on other samples.
