Abstract

Some kinematic variables and some anthropometric measurements affect the performance of human movements in general and motor performance and skills in the field of sports.
The study problem is stated by the analysis of some kinematic variables and Their relationship with some anthropometric measurements in the penalty shot in water polo sport.
The study aimed to identify the following :
1 Determining the values of some kinematic variables in the penalty shot in water polo.
2 Determining values of some anthropometric measurements in the penalty shot in water polo.
3Determining the relationship of some kinematic variables of anthropometric measurements in the penalty shot in water polo.
The study sample consisted of (7) players from the Iraqi youth national water polo team. The study was performed in the indoor Kadhimiya swimming pool in Baghdad in (2012). The researchers used the AL accuracy shot test in water polo with scientific observation by using a digital camera with a speed of 250 frames/second. The researchers processed data statistically using the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variance, and simple correlation coefficient. From the results, the researchers found a number of conclusions and the researchers recommended a number of recommendations and suggestions.
