RESUMEN
La antropometría es un instrumento clave para determinar cambios producidos por el entrenamiento y la edad, así como una herramienta para detectar talentos deportivos. El objetivo de esta investigación fue describir las características antropométricas de basquetbolistas varones seleccionados chilenos sub-14 durante el año 2017. Se evaluaron 28 deportistas con una edad promedio de 14.14 ± 0.36 [13.33-14.63] los cuales participaron del proceso de concentración de la Selección Nacional. Se evaluaron 25 variables antropométricas. Se calculó la composición corporal pentacompartimental, el somatotipo y la proporcionalidad. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva para la caracterización de los deportistas. Se encontró que los basquetbolistas sub-14 chilenos presentan un porcentaje de masa muscular elevado, un somatotipo mesoectomórfico y proporciones (score Z) negativas respecto a su altura.
ABSTRACT
Anthropometry is a key instrument to find body changes produced by sports training and age. It is also being used to determine young skilled athletes. The aim of this study was to determine the anthropometric characteristics of Chilean male basketball players under 14 years of age during 2017. We measured 28 athletes with an average age of 14.14 ± 0.36 [13.3314.63] who participated in the National Chilean Team concentration process. In the study, 25 anthropometric variables were measured including penta compartimental body composition, somatotype and proportionality were estimated. Statistical description was applied for the athletes characterization. The analysis showed that Chilean U-14 basketball players have a high percentage of muscle mass, a meso-ectomorphic somatotype and negative proportions (Z score) regarding their height.
