Title Comparison of selected parameters of function and shape of the foot in volleyball and beach volleyball women players Objectives The goal of this thesis is to find out if there are differences in chosen parameters for competitively playing volleyball and beach volleyball women players. Compare the influence of the sports footwear and hard surface court on the shape and function of the foot with the bare foot on the sand in technically similar sports. Methods The research involved 10 women playing volleyball and 10 women playing beach volleyball. All the players were 19 - 34 years old and all were regularly playing at competitive level. Selected monitored parameters were the quality of perception of sensation in the foot, foot arch shape evaluated by using plantogram and examination postural stability by using the Véle test. The test results were evaluated in both sports separately and then compared with each other. Results The results of this thesis show better readings in all investigated tests in both lower limbs at beach volleyball women players. Only in the case of the shape of the foot arch test on the left foot was the result statistically significant. Other selected parameters in shape and function of beach volleyball women players feet did not show plausible statistical difference....

The thesis "Motor Skills of Volleyball and Beach Volleyball Players Depending on Their Anthropometric Parameters" discusses the distinctions in somatotypes of players of both sports. The thesis aims to define the influence of a somatotype for playing in each position. Furthermore, the thesis compares the differences in motor skills between beach volleyball and volleyball players. Nowadays, professional sports are characterized by growing pressure on athlete's performance. It leads to higher competition which lowers the differences between the individual athletes to minimum. As it gets more difficult for every athlete to be the best, room for science opens up in sport. For this reason, natural conditions of somatotypes and other anthropometric parameters play key roles. The aim of the thesis was to discover the differences in motor skills and somatotypes of beach volleyball and volleyball players. In the research, somatic and motor measurements were applied on players of the same performance categories. Thus, the thesis offers material that beach volleyball and volleyball coaches can later use in practise, for instance while spotting future talents, setting appropriate positions or creating game plans.

Introduktion: Dynamic Strength Index är ett ratio som beskriver en individs förhållande mellan maximal och explosiv styrka. Post-activation potentiation (PAP) är ett fenomen där en förberedande aktivitet, exempelvis knäböj, används för att få en prestationsförbättring i en kommande aktivitet. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om (a) isometriska partiella knäböj (IPK) påverkar Dynamic Strength Index-ration (DSI), (b) IPK påverkar hopphöjd eller maximal kraft i CMJ, c) IPK påverkar maximal kraft i IMTP, (d) det finns någon signifikant korrelation mellan DSI-ratio och PAP-effekt. Metod: Fyra manliga och fyra kvinnliga beachvolleybollspelare (ålder 24.2 ± 3.8 år, vikt 72.7 ± 11.5 kg, längd 179.3 ± 9.2 cm) deltog i en counterbalanced measure design studie med två testtillfällen. Deltagarna utförde countermovement jump (CMJ) på kraftplattor och isometric mid-thigh-pull (IMTP) med en lastcell under båda testdagarna DSI och DSIPAP. Under DSIPAP utfördes även IPK som en förberedande aktivitet.                                                                                                                                Resultat: Resultaten visade ingen signifikant skillnad på DSI-ratio mellan testtillfällena DSI och DSIPAP (p=0.42). Resultaten för CMJ (cm) visade en lägre hopphöjd vid DSIPAP och en signifikant skillnad (p=0.042). Ingen signifikant skillnad för varken CMJ PF (p=0.96) eller IMTP PF (p=0.20) mellan DSI och DSIPAP hittades. Resultaten visade inte heller någon signifikant korrelation mellan DSI-ratio och PAP-effekt för CMJ peak power (r=-0.38) och CMJ hopphöjd (r=-0.21).                                                                                                                                                                       Konklusion: Maximala isometriska knäböj verkar varken påverka DSI-ratio, CMJ PF eller IMTP PF och hade en negativ påverkan på hopphöjd för beachvolleyspelare. Resultaten i den här studien stöder tidigare forskning att en möjlig negativ korrelation mellan styrka-effekt-ratio och PAP-effekt. Framtida studier behövs för att undersöka det närmare. / Introduction: Dynamic Strength Index (DSI) is a ratio which describes an individuals relationship between maximal and explosive strength. Post-activation potentiation (PAP) is a phenomenon where a conditioning activity, i.e. squats, is used to enhance a subsequent activity. The purpose of this study was to investigate if (a) isometric partial squats (IPS) could affect the DSI ratio, (b) IPS affects jump height or peak force in Countermovement jump (CMJ), (c) IPS will affect peak force in isometric mid thigh-pull (IMTP), (d) there is a significant correlation between DSI-ratio and PAP-effect. Methods: Four male and four female beach volleyball players (age 24.2 ± 3.8 years, weight 72.7 ± 11.5 kg, length 179.3 ± 9.2 cm) participated in a counterbalanced measure design study consisting of two experimental trials. The participants performed countermovement jump (CMJ) on force plates and isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) with a load cell during both trial days DSI and DSIPAP. During DSIPAP participants also performed IPS as a conditioning activity. Results: Results showed no significant difference on the DSI-ratio between the trials DSI and DSIPAP (p=0.42). Results for CMJ (cm) showed a decreased jump height at DSIPAP and a significant difference (p=0.042). No significant difference for neither CMJ PF (p=0.96) nor IMTP PF (p=0.20) between the trials were found. No significant correlation were found between DSI-ratio and PAP-effect neither for CMJ peak power (r=-0.38) nor CMJ jump height (r=-0.21). Conclusion: Maximal isometric squats does not seem to effect DSI-ratio, CMJ PF, CMJ PP nor IMTP PF but had a negative effect on jump height in CMJ for beach volleyball players. The findings in this study supports previous studies that a possible negative correlation exists between strength-power-ratio and PAP-effect. Future studies are required to investigate this further.
