Abstract


The research was implemented to find suitable professional fitness tests for female athletes of the Ho Chi Minh City basketball team. There were sixteen female basketballers from the team participated in the study. By using the methods of document reference, surveys, and statistical analysis, the study selected 14 fitness tests in total which comprised eleven pedagogical tests and three biomedical ones. All of them aim to thoroughly measure physical attributes needed in basketball, regarding speed, strength, flexibility, agility, general endurance, and professional endurance.
