- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoSelección y orientación de posibles talentos deportivos en la Unidad Educativa 16 de Abril(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Sucuzhañay Sacta, Darwin Israel; Ávila Mediavilla, Carlos Marcelo; 0302632724; ., .Sports talent selection in the Cañar province presents some deficiencies; sports organizations only conduct initiation processes with children and adolescents who come voluntarily to train and, on a few occasions, with possible talents who would have a greater projection to obtain results at the international level. The objective was to apply the search and selection process of sports talents, through anthropometric measurements and physical efficiency tests, to children and adolescents to elaborate a database that permits sports organizations at the formative level to develop groups with outstanding somatotypes and capacities. The research was non-experimental, descriptive in scope, quantitative approach, and cross-sectional. The study sample comprised 121 students aged 10- 13 from the 16 de Abril Educational Unit. The instrument used was the Ecuadorian National Sports Federation (FEDENADOR by its Spanish acronym) test battery. The results indicate different sports based on the tests, orienting students towards different sports disciplines; 42.1% are suggested to practice any sport according to height, while 59.9% are proposed for disciplines such as weightlifting, powerlifting, judo, wrestling, and athletics based on Body Mass Index. In addition, 60.3% are suggested for athletics and taekwondo according to BMI, and 54.5% are recommended for sports such as weightlifting, powerlifting, and athletics based on their wingspan. The results can be helpful for Cañar sports organizations to prepare possible talents with projection to have results at the international level.
