Predictors of the current psychophysical readiness for the game of student basketball teams

The purpose of the study is to identify indicators that would have a significant impact on the organism, be energetically maximally demanding, while, on the other hand, not causing substantial shifts in the athlete's condition over an extended period. Research methods and organization. Testing was conducted, which included movement in defense, a 20-meter run, shuttle run, and high jump. During the testing, the time taken to complete the tasks and heart rate (before the test, after its completion, and during four minutes of recovery) were recorded, and the pulse debt accumulation intensity index (PDAI) was calculated. After the testing, a regression analysis was performed to determine the relationships between test results (completion time and load index based on heart rate dynamics) and points scored in the games. Research results and conclusions. Indicators reflecting the current psychophysical readiness of basketball players on college teams for the game have been identified, without causing fatigue and ensuring high predictive characteristics. The heart rate (HR) of players during the performance of technical-tactical actions in the men's team within the framework of ASB Championship matches has been established. The dynamics of HR and the 'cost' of technical-tactical actions of basketball players have been analyzed both in defense and attack. The results of the regression analysis of the testing data demonstrated a correlation between the number of points scored and the time indicators for completing the tests, which can be utilized in the development of a predictive model for assessing the probability of success in the game. The obtained results underscore the importance of considering the game situation when planning the training process and assessing athletes' readiness for competitions. This study may serve as a foundation for further developments in the preparation of basketball players and enhancing their effectiveness on the court.
