摘要

Taking 124 young Taiwanese female players as the study object and divided them into four categories according to their skill levels: extremely excellent (A), excellent (B), general (C) and control (D). After performing a tennis sport-specific fitness test, the obtained data is basic data presented in descriptive statistics. The single-factor variation is used to analyze the difference in performance of players with different skill levels in the specific fitness. The statistically significant level is set to P ＜ 0.05. The results showed that players of different skill levels are throwing medicine balls (right), medicine balls (left), medicine balls (overhead), 1600- meter walk/run and other items are all had significant differences. The extremely excellent group (A) and the excellent group (B) are better than the control group (D), and the 1600-meter walk/run from the extremely excellent group (A) is better than the general group (C); in the grip strength (dominant hand) item, the extremely excellent group (A) is better than control group (D). Although grip strength (non-dominant hand) and shuttle running reach significant levels, but there was no difference after a posteriori test; in the forward posture of the sitting posture, the 20-meter sprint, the vertical jump, and the tennis agility test, all did not reach significant standards. This article discusses the research on the sport-specific fitness of Taiwanese young female tennis players. The results can not only let domestic young female tennis players know their specific physical status, but also provide a reference for coaches who guide the training when selecting materials or formulating training prescriptions.
