Impact of some specific kinematic parameters on the 60m hurdles result

The aim of this paper was to determine the impact of some specific kinematic parameters on the result in 60 m hurdles. For this purpose, the sample included 7 female hurdlers aged 11-12 years who ran several times and each result was treated as a separate entity, with the total of 15 entities. All subjects are competitors in the hurdles event. A set of two specific kinematic parameters was applied. The first set describes start and initial acceleration, and the second set describes clearance of the first hurdle. Regression analysis was applied, which, from the first variable set, isolated Time to the first hurdle as a variable with significant impact, whereas in the second variable set, the isolated variables were Total first hurdle stride length, Flight time over the first hurdle, and Body inclination. The obtained results indicate that a more efficient mastering of the hurdles running technique is necessary to achieve better results in 60 m hurdles.
