1 COMPARISON OF SOME ANTROPOMETRIC AND MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS BETWEEN ICE HOCKEY PLAYERS AND CONTROL GROUP IN KOCAELI Çolak.T.*, Gönener.A**., Bamaç.B.*, Sertbaş.K.**,Taşkıran.Y.**,Özbek.A.*, Bamaç.Y.* Atalı L.*** *Kocaeli University, School of Medicine. Department of Anatomy, Turkey ** Kocaeli Üniversity School of Physical Education and Sport, Turkey ***P.E. and Sport Teacher, Turkey INTRODUCTION It is a high risc factor that people who enter sport activities will have a helth problem or deformity (1).In sport life process there will be some morphological diffrences in bone, muscles, nerves and articulations (2). It is very important to know the morphological structure of human body (3). In our study we have used ice hockey game which is the different type of sport in the world.ice hockey is a fast and furious game. It s well known that adaptational process following athletic training effect muscles, tendons, bones and nerves of the athlete. MATERIAL METHOD Our subjects were 21 males ice hockey players from municipality of İzmit, as well as 21 males who make up the non-active control group which is not involved in regular or organised sports activities.the average age of the sportsmen included in the study was 18,56 ± 1,71 years and average age of the control group was 18,46 ± 1,91 years. These people have all been dealing with ice hockey for at least 5 years.care was taken to ensure that the people were elite and professional sportsmen who had daily training 10 hours a week.we evaluated the goniometric measurements and grip strenght only in the upper extremity in ice hockey.in this study age, height, weight anthropometric measurements (extremity lenghts, assessment of normal joint movements, body mass index, cormique index, upper and lower part index, acromio-iliacus index, hip index and somatotip), compared with the control group. 1

2 We used dinamometre for measuring hand grip strength. Range of motion was evaluated by standard to measure goniometric technique (4,5,6). We used eloctronic weighbridge ( Tanita 0,01) for weigth measurement, stadiometre for heigth and sitting length, wall scale for fathom length and for the other length measurement we used caliper. Also in amplitude measurement we used caliper and convoluted edge caliper ( 0,2mm acuity). For skin convoloution thickness we used Holtaim Skinfold ( 101mm). The practice field of this study was Kocaeli University Faculty of Medicine and Sport Science Research Center. RESULTS : Table Comparison of all values between ice hockey players and controls.

Training studies have attempted to improve specific components of hockey fitness.ice hockey is a physically demanding sport which probably imposes the highest impact and weight bearing load upon the skeleton and muscles. Our results are in accordance with those of previous studies that have shown the effect of playing ice hockey on player s morphology (7,8). In ice hockey players, it appears that training and playing ice hockey might influence range of motion, body structure and muscle strenght a possitive direction. The observed differences in body structure in ice hockey players can be related to the type of loading the skeleton undergoes playing ice hockey in this study.
