Abstract

Agility is an undivided part of a sportsman's physical conditioning. Like many studies, they focus on this element of the condition. We're trying to contribute to our study of the perceptiveness of this component. The Illinois Agility Test (Getchell, 1979) is a commonly used test of agility in sports. It measures the ability to change position and direction. The length of the course is 10 meters, and the width (distance between the start and finish points) is 5 meters. Four cones are used to mark the start, finish and the two turning points. Another four cones are placed down the center an equal distance apart. Each cone in the center is spaced 3.3 meters apart. On the 'Go' command the stopwatch is started, and the athlete gets up as quickly as possible and runs around the course in the direction indicated, without knocking the cones over, to the finish line, at which the timing is stopped. Results: the average group in 2020 was 15.13 sec, and the average of the same group for 2022 is 15.46 sec. The best time of the pre-escation was 14.17 seconds the best time after two years of the same group is 14.59 sec. While the time with the weak was 16.89 sec and after two years this time is 16.70 sec. As a result, there is a deterioration in the time of the execution of and that it has not been worked enough in this direction.
