Summary

Habitual physical activity was found to be positively related to better health and well-being. One of the most popular physical activity forms is ball games. In Israel, there is a growing popularity in a new ball game - Newcomball - which is being played by many middle age, non-athlete, women. However, so far, no study had evaluated the contribution of the game to improvement in the participants' physical fitness. The aim of this study, therefore, is to evaluate the effects of six month two weekly Newcomball training sessions to the physical fitness of middle age women.
