Abstract EN
The article investigates the significance of assessing physical development in selecting young swimming talents, particularly in Algeria, aged 11-13.
it underscores the importance of merging sports with sciences, particularly in swimming, to enhance training methods and identify swimmers with high physical performance.
the research addresses the role of physical evaluation in talent selection and explores related hypotheses.
two previous studies are referenced, emphasizing the need for standardized assessments over anecdotal observations in selecting athletes.
the study outlines research procedures, emphasizing physical and morphological measurements conducted on a sample of 74 swimmers across nine teams.
findings indicate that morphological indicators and physical assessments, including tests for strength, endurance, flexibility, and speed, are crucial in selecting talented swimmers.
the study concludes that a scientific approach to talent selection, considering both physical and morphological aspects, is essential for coaches to identify and train potential champion swimmers effectively.
recommendations include enhancing coaches' knowledge, streamlining selection processes, and fostering collaboration among sporting bodies to ensure systematic and scientific talent selection.
