The group of probands consisted of 40 boys aged 14-18, who are members of the hockey club in the Vysočina Region. Body height, weight, circumferential proportions (right arm, abdomen, hips, right thigh) and skin folds (above biceps, triceps, quadriceps, subscapular, suprailiacal) were measured and assessed. The Body Mass Index was calculated from body height and weight. The results of basic physical characteristics of the group of adolescent hockey players and reference groups of adolescent swimmers, probands of Czechoslovakian gymnastic performance in 1985 and probands of the 6th National Anthropological Research of Children and Youth 2001 are significantly different. Statistically highly significant differences in mean values were calculated for BMI, right thigh circumference, skinfolds above triceps, subskapular, suprailiacal compared to a set of adolescent swimmers in favor hockey players. In the functional tests of the spine are symptom of Stibor and symptom of Otto in forward bend, where the group of teenage swimmers achieved better than the group of teenage hockey players. The differences in the mean Chippaux-Šmiřák index (evalution of the condition of flat feet) right and left foot feet values of hockey players and swimmers were evaluated as highly statistically significant, more frequent flat feet was recorded in teenage hockey players. The differences in the mean scarf test right hand were evaluated as statistically significant in favor hockey players.

Pilná, Petra ; Musálek, Martin (advisor) ; Vojta, Zdeněk (referee)
Title: Somatotype and off-ice performance as predictors for long term hockey perspective in youth ice hockey players. Objectives: The aim of this thesis was to determine whether a player's somatotype and performance in selected off-ice tests predict a player's hockey perspective judged by coaches in youth hockey of the highest domestic competition. Methods: The thesis included 112 hockey players in highest youth league. The off-ice tests included 1. Illinois agility, 2. Illinois agility with a ball, 3. Five jump test, 4. Sit and Reach Flexibility Test, 5. Squat Jump, 6. Free Arm Countermovement Jump, 7. Pull ups, 8. 1500 m run. The somatotype was evaluated according to the method of Heath and Carter (1990). The analysis of variance with repetition was used to compare performances over time with respect to somatotype categorization. A paired T-test with a confidence level of 95 % (p < 0,05) was used to assess potential within-survey. Cohen's d was used for the paired T-test to estimate the clinical significance (effect size), with Cohen's d ≤ 0.3 determined as the clinically significant effect size. To estimate the degree of influence of the selected off-ice tests on game perspective was assesed by multiple regression analysis with significance p < 0,05 and adjusted R2. Results: The only significant...
