Abstract

Technical-Physical evaluation is the estimation of technical skills level of an athlete according to his physical ability. Clearly, vertical jump testing has numerous sport applications; but there are many different protocols being used to assess vertical jump ability and explosive power in athletes.This study presents an equation for evaluating the high jump athlete. The equation is to evaluate the actual performance of any athlete by a degree of ten using the simple and most efective factors. The paticipants were two groups (distinguished and non-distinguished). The authors used T test and Correlation coeffecient to prove the validity , realiability and the stability of the equation in order to evaluate the technical-physical skills. The results indicted that the equation is valid not only to evaluate the technical-physical skills, but also to predict the best personal record according to his physical ability. This method can motivate the athletes and the coaches to improve the physical abiltity and the personal record.
