| Description | The aim of this study is to identify the factors which may affect the shooting efficiency under the natural game conditions. Ten female U19 basketball players, 1st division of this age category, participated in this research. Monitoring of the heart rate (HR) and the shooting performance was done during 4 competitive games. 206 total field goal attempts were evaluated. The relation between the dependent variable (field goal shooting performance) and the independent variables (intensity of load, defensive pressure, ball possession duration, distance from the basket, individual game periods) was expressed by binary logistic regression. Two regression coefficients in the final model—the independent variables, i.e. defensive pressure and shooting distance—were statistically significant. We recommend to take into account these findings when preparing a shooting practice. |
