Özet

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the thickness of the arm, circumferencemeasurement and the hand grip of the 10-12 age children badminton athletes. Materials and Methods: 72 badminton athleteswith a mean age of 11.8 ± 0.1 were included in the study voluntarily. Physical characteristics of children; height (kg), bodyweight (kg), body mass index (kg/m²), body circumference measurements (cm), (forearm, mid-arm and mid-upper arm) andskinfold (mm), (triceps, subscapula, biceps, suprailiac skin thickness) values were measured. Results: Data were analyzed bySPSS 23.0 package program. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to determine whether the distribution of numerical variables wasuniformly distributed. Pearson Correlation test was applied to determine whether there is a correlation between theparameters. Statistical significance level was accepted as p <0.05. In the evaluation, a statistically significant difference wasfound between the right hand grip strength and subscapula skin thickness, (r=0.25), mid-arm circumference, (r=0.27),measurement and left hand grip strength with subscapula skin thickness, (r=0.3), forearm circumference, (r=0.24), mid-armcircumference, (r=0.35) and mid-upper arm circumference, (r=0.34), (p <0.05). Conclusion: It can be said that arm skin thicknessand arm circumferential measurements are effective in the hand grip strength parameters of sports such as badminton.
