Abstract
The functional abilities of young basketball players were tested in three time points by means of a 7-test battery. The sample consisted of 15 junior top basketball players, aged 17-19 years, members of the junior Croatian national team that was preparing for the World Junior Basketball Championship in Greece in 1995. The results of the canonical discriminant analysis show the improvement of test results - these being the effects of the training process during the preparation period. Although the obtained differences are statistically significant in only one variable (T200), it can be said that, at the end of the preparation period, one of the basic objectives of the training process, ie. the highest results in the given tests, was accomplished.
