This research aims to explore the effect of cross-training on some physiological indicators and jump shooing performance in young basketball players. The researcher adopted an experimental approach, where a sample of young players was selected and divided into two groups: an experimental group that underwent cross-training, and a control group that continued with traditional training.
The training program lasted (6) weeks and included various exercises aimed at enhancing physical fitness and technical skills associated with scoring. The results showed superiority of the experimental group in physiological indicators, in addition to a significant improvement in jump-shooing performance.
The researcher concluded that cross-training is an effective method for enhancing the physical and skill aspects of young basketball players. Accordingly, he recommended incorporating it into training programs for this group, while expanding its study to include various skills and age groups
