The purpose of the study is to consider and summarize the Chinese paradigm of selection in the training of athletes in game sports (using the example of basketball and volleyball).
The results of the study and their discussion. The Chinese paradigm of athlete selection is a logical process that combines science with the requirements of practice, which arose a long time ago and is gradually developing, forming an emerging interdisciplinary system. It is based on the theoretical basis of the essential characteristics of sports, the laws of physical development of youth, genetics and other theories, widely uses statistics, measurements and evaluation.
The sports selection process in China is divided into building a system of indicators and developing evaluation standards for two parts:
The construction of a selection indicator system is the core of the entire assessment system to establish the main link of the process;
The development of performance evaluation standards is the ultimate goal of the selection system.
In accordance with the characteristics of physical characteristics, the classification of athletic abilities goes through some levels:
the first level is the establishment of attributes of the selection index;
The second level is the refinement of the index category;
The third level is the quantification of index data in three stages to form a huge database of indexes.
It has been established that the three-level indices for the selection of young basketball and volleyball players in China include the following indicators: body length (athlete's height); body fat; derived indices (body length/sitting height, finger spacing and body length, etc.).
Currently, the selection process of basketball and volleyball players in China has a stable research model following its inherent logical order and principles, and the scientific community strives to be consistent in presenting research results.
Conclusions. Thus, the Chinese paradigm of selecting basketball and volleyball players is based on the base of selection indices, in accordance with expert assessment, the overall structure is determined, and a test model is created in accordance with the importance of the type of features.
