Title: The Kinematic Analysis of Basketball Clean Shot (Free-Three Point Shots) For Handicapped Basketball Players in Jordan
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate basketball shooting free-throw and three-point throw (clean shot), to investigate some kinematics variables for ball at release in shooting performance in free throw and three point throw in wheelchair basketball, and to investigate the relationship between the shooting distance and the kinematic variables for each player from different classification class. The descriptive approach was used in this study. This study sample consisted of the best (4) players from the National team of wheelchair Basketball in Jordan, and were chosen intentionally from the population of (59) players in which representing the four classes in the functional classification system for Wheelchair basketball players. Arial performance Analysis System (APAS) had been used to analyze one clean shot for each player on both throws in order to answer the questions of this study, 3-D analysis has been done to the data collected from four high speed video cameras, (captured, trimmed, Synchronized then digitized, filtered, transformed by using DLT into 3D and finely having the data of raw position and linear displacement, velocities, and acceleration for all digits and the ball for all joints of the upper arm for the sample of this study in both throws. The most important conclusion of this study was that each case has its own kinematic uniquness and should be viewed individually. It was suggested to utilize the high technology with APAS system to analyze other skills using three dimension analysis in wheelchair basketball such as dribbling or passing in future research and to use these results as criteria for evaluation of other wheelchair basketball in Jordan.
