The Effect of Using Exercises with Multiple Resistances on the Explosive Power of the Legs and Shooting Accuracy of 3x3 Basketball Players

Abstract

Introduction and Importance of the Research is that 3x3 basketball is a relatively new sport that has recently gained popularity worldwide, including in Iraq. It resembles 5x5 basketball in its diverse skills and playing style, which varies depending on player positions and their tactical, technical, physical, and skill-based abilities. To effectively perform the various basic tasks, players must possess strong motor skills that enable them to execute skills quickly and at the right time, and to react to the rapid and unexpected situations that arise during the 10-minute game, which requires reaching the basket and scoring points. The research problem is thsat Through observing 3x3 basketball tournaments, the researcher noted a clear weakness in shooting skills among female 3x3 basketball players. This is attributed to a lack of focus on shooting drills from both inside and outside the arc during training sessions, and a failure to prioritize developing these skills by most coaches. The recordings of most matches revealed a significant weakness in shooting skills in 3x3 basketball, a weakness that can make a significant difference in the outcome of a game, hindering the ability to secure victory quickly and decisively. The result, and this is where the importance of the problem lies, is the number of exercises specific to multiple resistances and their effect on developing leg explosive power and shooting in 3x3 basketball players. The study aimed to identify exercises specific to multiple resistances and their effect on developing leg explosive power in 3x3 basketball players. Research hypothesis that there is no effect of exercises specific to multiple resistances on leg explosive power in 3x3 basketball players. Research methodology: The researcher used a single-group experimental method as it is suitable for the nature of the research, Conclusions, and recommendations.
