Constructing a Training Situation Test to Measure Passing Skill for Futsal Players of the Colleges of the University of Mosul

Section: Physical Education and Sport Sciences

Abstract

The research aims to:


 construct a training situation test to measure passing skill among futsal players representing the University of Mosul college teams, and to establish normative scores and standard levels for the training situation test used to measure passing skill among futsal players of the University of Mosul college teams. The researchers adopted the descriptive method due to its suitability for the research problem.


The research population consisted of players from the University of Mosul's college teams for the academic year (2024–2025), totaling 23 colleges. The research sample included players from 16 college teams, representing (69.56%) of the total research population. The total number of players in the research sample was 143. The construction sample consisted of (104) players, representing (72.72%) of the original research sample, while the application sample included (39) players, representing (27.27%) of the original research sample.


To obtain the required data and information, the researchers used questionnaires, tests, and personal interviews, and applied scientific criteria such as validity, reliability, and objectivity.                                                                                                                            The statistical tools employed in the study included: the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, percentage, Pearson’s simple correlation coefficient, independent samples t-test with equal sample sizes, skewness coefficient, chi-square test, and the standard score (δ-6). Based on the results, it was concluded that



  • The designed test is appropriate for the research sample,

  • The adopted test follows a normal distribution


Special tables of scores and standard levels for the test were successfully established
