ABSTRACT
 Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the body mass index (BMI) and body compositions of elite and non- elite play- ers by gender in korfball, a mixed-gender team sport. Material and Methods: Thirty-nine athletes aged 17-30, 20 national athletes play- ing in international tournaments, and 19 playing only in national tour- naments voluntarily participated in the study. Body compositions of the participants were evaluated by using a Bluetooth-based device, BiodyXpert Bioimpedance. Fat%, fat weight, lean body weight (LBW), bone mineral content, total water, and basal metabolic rate were evaluated. Results: The BMI, %fat, LBW of the elite female and male players respectively is (21.00±2.73kg/m2, 22.17±4.93, 47±4.31); (22.88±3.23 kg/m2, %14.88±5.51, 64.13±6.2kg). The BMI, %fat, LBW of the non-elite female and male players respectively is (20.33±2.90 kg/m2, %21.58±5.00, 44.5±4.1kg); (21±3.00 kg/m2, %13.86±5.55, 62.71±1.16 kg). Height, weight, %fat, muscle mass and LBW values of elite athletes were found to be significantly higher than those of non- elite athletes (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in BMI and height values between the two groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: BMI and fat% of elite and non-elite female and male korfball players are within normal limits. LBW is higher in elite athletes than in non-elite athletes. As in other sports, fat % and fat weight are higher in female athletes than men, and LBW is higher in men. This difference is thought to be due to the physiological difference between men and women.

ÖZET
 Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı; kadın ve erkek sporcuların aynı takımda eşit koşullarda oynadığı bir takım sporu olan korfbol de, elit ve elit olmayan korfbolculerin beden kütle indeksi ve vücut kompozisyonlarının cinsiyete göre karşılaştırılmasıdır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya, uluslararası turnuvalarda oynayan 20 milli korfbolcu ve sadece ulusal turnuvalarda oynayan 19 korfbolcu olmak üzere toplam 39 sporcu gönüllü olarak katıldı. Korfbolcuların boy, vücut ağırlığı ölçümleri yapıldı, vücut kompozisyonlarının değerlendirmesi için BiodyXpert Bioimpedance cihazı kullanıldı. BKİ ve vücut bileşenlerinden % yağ, yağ ağırlığı, yağsız vücut ağırlığı, kemik mineral içeriği, toplam su ve bazal metabolizma hızı değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Elit kadın ve erkek korfbolcuların BKİ, %yağ ve yağsız vücut ağırlığı değerleri sırasıyla (21,00±2,73 kg/m2; %22,17±4,93; 47±4,31kg); (22,88±3,23 kg/m2, %yağ %14,88±5,5, 64,13±6,2 kg)'dır. Elit olmayan kadın ve erkek korfbolcuların BKİ, % yağ ve yağsız vücut ağırlığı değerleri sırasıyla (20,33±2,90 kg/m2, % yağ %21,58±5,00,44,5±4,1kg); (21±3,00 kg/m2, % yağ %13,86±5,55; 62,71±11,16 kg)'dır. Elit sporcuların boy, kilo, % yağ, yağsız vücut ağırlığı değerleri, elit olmayanlara göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulundu (p<0,05). İki grup arasında BKİ ve boy değerlerinde anlamlı fark görülmedi (p<0,05). Sonuç: Elit ve elit olmayan kadın ve erkek korfbolcuların BKİ ve % yağları normal sınırlardadır. Yağsız beden ağırlığı elit sporcularda, elit olmayanlara göre daha yük- sektir. Diğer spor dallarında olduğu gibi % yağ, yağ ağırlığı kadın sporcularda, erkeklere göre daha yüksek, yağsız beden ağırlığı ise erkeklerde daha fazladır. Bu farklılığın, kadın ve erkekler arasındaki fizyolojik farklılıktan kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir.
