Analysis
Analysis of the test result is by comparing it with the athlete's previous results
for this test. It is expected that, with appropriate training between each test,
the analysis would indicate an improvement in the athlete's agility and speed.
Target Group
This test is suitable for team sports but not for individuals where the test
would be contraindicated.
Reliability
Test reliability refers to the degree to which a test is consistent and stable in
measuring what it is intended to measure. Reliability will depend upon how
strict the test is conducted and the individual's level of motivation to perform
the test. The following link provides a variety of factors that may influence the
results and therefore the test reliability.
Validity
Test validity refers to the degree to which the test actually measures what it
claims to measure and the extent to which inferences, conclusions, and

physical development.
