“…Analysing statistics and recordings of F.C. Barcelona matches during the Champions League 2011-2012, Curiţianu et al [27] have shown that that players' reaction speeds and use of appropriate defence systems have an impact on the number of effective quick attacks. The differences in time anticipation between Champions League and the PGNiG Superliga goalkeepers suggest that top-level goalkeepers wait until the last second before interfering, which makes them more effective and give the thrower an opportunity to change the target of the throw, which may translate into a lower effectiveness of intervention [7].…”

Background Handball is a high-intensity game, during which players run, change directions with or without the ball, interact with the opponent and make different decisions in both offensive and defensive actions. Players‘ performance may depend on a number of factors, including explosive force, power, speed and agility. Players‘ results may be significantly influenced by their, psychomotor abilities. This article presents an analysis of selected psychomotor abilities of female handball players at different level of competition. Methods Test2Drive computer tests were used. The following four tests were used to measure psychomotor abilities: the Simple Reaction Time Test (SIRT), the Choice Reaction Time Test (CHORT), the Hand-Eye Coordination Test and the Spatial Anticipation Test (SPANT). The study covered a group of 118 female handball players (average age 19.6 ± 3.16), playing in the PGNiG Polish Women’s Superliga, the Polish 1st Handball League and 2nd the Polish 2nd Handball League, in the playing positions: goalkeepers, centre players, pivot players and wing players. The study also included analyses of the players‘ body composition and aerobic capacity through the use of the multistage 20-m shuttle run test. In addition, the players‘ psychomotor abilities were analysed depending on the level of competition and playing position. Results The analysis of the reaction time and movement time showed statistically significant differences between the results obtained by the female handball players on different levels of competition. Moreover the female players from the Polish Women’s Superliga exhibited the fastest reaction times according to the SIRT, the CHORT and the SPANT. Additionally, on the basis of the linear Pearson correlation coefficient, a statistically significant relationship was determined between the players‘ psychomotor abilities (movement time in the SIRT, the CHORT and the SPANT) and elements of their body composition or aerobic capacity. Conclusions The analysis showed that the higher the level of competition (leagues), the shorter the female handball players‘ reaction times. The study also revealed that the players‘ body mass index and percentage of fat content reassociated with movement times, while their aerobic capacity (measured in the multistage 20-m shuttle run test) had a significant influence on their reaction times. This study shows that reaction time it’s one of ability which should be consider to develop in training of female handball players.

“…Curiţianu et al by analysing matches of F.C. Barcelona examined the impact of reaction time and adequate systems of defence on the number of effective rapid attacks [20]. Another study from this scope [21], identified the impact of the ability to anticipate and reduce response times during goalkeeping interventions on the level of effectiveness of professional goalkeepers.…”

“…According to the authors, the psychomotor abilities of the players may also be crucial to the effectiveness of the game. In studies of this scope, the response time of the players was referred to the results [20,21] or various aspects of the game [22,23,24,25,26,27,28,17], for example. The impact of the speed and response time on the final outcome of the match was addressed by Rata [22], Cicma [23] and Marković [24].…”

Background: The study presents an analysis of selected psychomotor abilities of female handball players at different levels of experience. Methods: Studies were performed using Test2Drive computer tests. The following four tests were used to measure psychomotor fitness: Simple Reaction Time, Choice Reaction Time, Hand-Eye Coordination and Spatial Anticipation. The study covered a group of 118 female handball players (age: 19.6 ± 3.16),who play in the PGNiG Polish Women’s Superliga, Polish 1st and 2nd handball league, for the following positions: goalkeepers, centre players, pivot players and wing players. The study also included the body composition analysis and the aerobic capacity level with the use of the multistage 20 metre shuttle run test. In addition, the level of psychomotor abilities of female handball players has been analysed depending on their competition class (league), position on the court and dominant hand. Results: The analysis of the reaction time and movement time showed statistically significant differences between the results (SIRT MT, CHORT RT,HECOR MT) obtained by the female handball players from different competition classes. Additionally, on the basis of the linear Pearson correlation were determined statistically significant relationship between psychomotor abilities and elements of body composition or the aerobic capacity level. Conclusions: The analysis showed that the female players from Polish Women’s Superliga had the highest level of reaction time (SIRT, CHORT and SPANT tests). The study also revealed a significant impact of the body mass index and the percentage of fat content on the movement time (SIRT, CHORT and SPANT tests). The aerobic capacity level (measured in the multistage 20 metre shuttle run test) had a significant influence on the reaction time.
