Vol.6,No.2(2012)

Abstract

This article looks at the evolution of the structure of teams in the top Czech women‘s basketball competition - Excelsior league. The tracking period was seasons 1998/99 to 2010/11. The cardinal method of this research is based on content analysis of game match statistics – these include the number of female players (their age), minutes played, points scored and coefficient of usefulness. The sample of players is classified into three groups (Czech players younger than twenty years, Czech players twenty years old and older and foreign players). The results confirmed the expected increase of number of foreign players as well as a continuously growing impact on the game. Our study presented a coefficient of utility players. The trend of integration into Czech female players younger than 20 years is inversely dependent on the number of Czech female players older than 20 years. Our assumptions were confirmed. The article refers to the change of team constitution.
