Abstract :Although there are many basic techniques in volleyball, the serving technique can change the direction or result of the game. The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between some isometric strength and anthropometric properties of elite female volleyball players aged between 15 and 17 with their capability to serve to the point. 33 female volleyball players aged between 15 and 17 [16,09], playing in three different teams in the Turkish Volleyball 2nd League participated in the study. Some anthropometric and serving arm isometric force measurements, such as serving arm length and circumference, were made on the players participating in the study, and the relationship between the serving points in tennis was evaluated. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation test were performed in the SPSS package program. Although a positive relationship is found between the serving hit rate of the players and licensing age insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r = 0.35);, body mass index insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r = 0.36);, extension arm circumference insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r = 0.59);, flexion arm circumference insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r = 0.53); and forearm circumference insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r = 0.49);, no statistically significant relationship was observed with other variables. Consequently, it has been noted that the past of the players as the licensed player and some anthropometric properties are related to tennis serve hit rate in female volleyball players aged between 15 and 17.
