Effect of Short-Term Coaching Program to Enhance Basketball Technical Skills of Passing, Shooting, and Dribbling
Abstrct
Basketball's physical demands and wide appeal make numerous societal applications feasible. Through a short-term physical and psychological exercise program, this study sought to improve collegiate basketball players' physical, psychological, and technical skills during their off-study period. Twenty-four university basketball players older than 18 and in good physical and mental health participated in the study. Twelve participants were assigned to the experimental group and twelve to the control group. The instruction program lasted three weeks and consisted of four two-hour weekly sessions. The experimental group received specialized instruction in shooting, passing, and dribbling. In contrast, both groups received training in fundamental skills, aerobic fitness, vertical jumping, arm and trunk muscle endurance, and rudimentary playing skills. The study's results revealed that both unique and mixed training improved maximal oxygen uptake, with both groups experiencing similar improvements. Aerobic fitness and strength improved roughly 30% in the specific training group and 20% in the combined training group. Moreover, performance in three basketball technical skills increased by 17 to 27% in both groups, with a tendency for shooting and passing skills to develop more significantly in the training group. These results suggest that an exclusively on-court basketball training program (special training) is as effective as a combined training program at enhancing aerobic and anaerobic fitness. Based on the provided fit indices, the adaptability of the green enterprise model to basketball players demonstrates an acceptable and decent fit. The findings emphasize the potential for targeted and specific training to improve basketball players' physical and technical abilities during their off-season.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
