Introduction. Human muscle power is important regardless of what one is or does. The link between muscle power and reaction time may have its roots in agility. Understanding the links between these may help the overall improvement of the power output in different actions either in day to day activities or in sport competitions. Objectives. The aim of this paper was to determine if the jumping reaction time correlates with the power output for young female basketball players. Materials and Methods. The participants in this study were young female basketball players (N = 8), aged from 13 to 14 years that underwent two tests: the jumping reaction time test and the power output test using the MGM-15 carpet. Results. There was a negative correlation between the reaction time of jumping and the power output. Conclusion. There is a correlation between the jumping reaction with a visual sign and the jumping power output of the subject.

Keywords: basketball, reaction time, muscle power, jumping
