Effect of maturity timing on the physical performance of male Polish basketball players aged 13 to 15 years

Abstract The aims of this study were (i) to identify the motor potential and basic anthropometric characteristics of Polish basketball players aged 13 to 15 years, (ii) to demonstrate the effect of maturity timing on the results achieved in motor tests and basic body composition parameters, and (iii...
