| Summary: | Background and Study Aim. Warm-up exercises are critical for performance and injury prevention. This study aimed to determine the warm-up knowledge levels of amateur football players.
Material and Methods. The research group in this study consists of 209 male university students from Bitlis province who play football. The “Personal Information Form” and the “Athlete Warm-Up Habit Information Form,” which determine the warm-up habits of the athletes, were used as data collection tools. The SPSS statistical program was used for data analysis. The Independent Samples T-test was used to compare two independent groups, and the One-Way ANOVA test was used for three or more groups. The Bonferroni Post Hoc test was used for multiple comparisons within groups.
Results. A significant difference was found between the warm-up habit knowledge scale scores of amateur football players in terms of sports history and family income level variables (p < 0.05), while no significant difference was found in the variables of weekly training frequency and receiving nutrition education (p > 0.05). It was determined that the warm-up habit knowledge level scores of football players with a sports history of 11 years and above were higher than those of football players with 1–5 years and 6–10 years. It was also determined that the warm-up habit knowledge level scores of football players with high family income levels were higher than those of football players with low- and medium-income levels. Additionally, it was determined that the warm-up habit knowledge level scores of football players with a medium family income level were higher than those of football players with a low-income level.
Conclusions. Amateur football players have a good level of warm-up knowledge, and the duration of participation in sports and a high family income level increase their warm-up knowledge. |
