ABSTRACT:
The game of basketball requires comprehensive preparation in all physical and skillful aspects as well as tactical, psychological and educational aspects. This is achieved through the preparation of comprehensive training curricula in order to develop players, including young people, as they are the basis for achieving the best results and reaching a high level. Through the experience of the researcher and his knowledge of some research and training curricula, he observed that these curricula and research did not devote a significant portion of their content to contemporary training techniques, as well as a lack of interest in them, which adversely affected the performance of young players with defensive skills and a clear weakness when performing them. As a result, this skill always results in challenging circumstances and the presence of A close striker, which adversely affects the outcomes of the match. The goal of the study was to design Holmer-style fartlek drills for improving young basketball players' defensive abilities. To determine if Holmer-style fartlek workouts have a good effect on young basketball players' development of their defensive abilities. The experimental approach was used by the researcher as a measurement appropriate to the study goals. Twelve Al-Hilla Basketball Club players between the ages of 16 and 18 made up the study community. The community was randomly split into two groups (the experimental group and the control group), with six players in each group. The research's most crucial finding is that there has been a development. young basketball players' defensive prowess in both the experimental and control groups. For young basketball players, one of the most crucial pieces of advice is to focus on physical development in a manner that precedes and follows the development of offensive skills.
