Abstract

The research aimed to identify the relationship between anthropometric and functional measurements and skill performance, as well as to determine the contribution rate of these measurements to skill performance. The researcher used a descriptive method, and the sample included 10 female tennis players. Several anthropometric and functional measurements, along with skill tests recommended by experts and specialists, were employed. After applying appropriate statistical methods, the researcher concluded that there is a statistically significant correlation between some anthropometric and functional measurements and skill performance. The most important contributing measurements to skill performance were overall body height, arm length, contracted and relaxed arm circumference, resting and post-exercise heart rate, vital capacity, and maximal oxygen consumption. Among the key recommendations were emphasizing the anthropometric measurements that contribute to skill performance, working on their development and improvement, and considering them when designing training programs and plans. Additionally, regular physiological assessments should be conducted to monitor the effects of training on the efficiency of the body's vital systems.
