With the development of modern basketball games, the body confrontation is reflected in all aspects,including the confrontation of speed, stamina and agility, which put forward higher demands on athletes'physical ability. As is known to all, the weak physical ability is the woman basketball players'weak point and the key factor that hindering the development of woman basketball game. It is the same with CUBA, which is an attempt to develop competitive sport and forster the competitive athletes in advanced physical education. CUBA has special requirements for athletes'age, sex, training, competition and sources. It is a special group between youth tournament and teenagers' tournament. The physical ability is likely to influence the development of CUBA woman basketball.As for the measuring and assessing criteria, quite a few scholars have done relative research, but the main subjects of their research are teenager athletes not CUBA athletes.By meams of documentary method, questionaires,interviews, surveying method and statistical method, the thesis has researched into 32 woman basketball players who took part in CUBA College Tournaments from five colleges or universities.Through analyzing their characteristics of physical ability,learning about the factors affecting the training contents and methods , the thesis sets up an assessing index system and assessing criteria of CUBA woman players'physical ability to improve greatly the woman basketball players physical ability and their comperhensive ability. According to this, the following conclusions are drawn:1. Through the research a trend has turned out that CUBA woman basketball players are required to be higher and heavier.However, there are big differences between the height, weight and Cotonou index of CUBA and WCBA woman basketball players. There are also some big differences in blood lactic acid, pulses after matches among CUBA woman basketball players.By comparing the two grades tested, We have found that physical ability of these woman players is poor, and there is a decline in strength of legs, a balance of waist strength, and an obvious increase of resistance, the strength of arms, the speed and sensitivity.2. There are macrocosmic and microcosmic factors found influencing the level of CUBA woman basketball players by means of looking up documents, questionaires and expert interviews. Macrocosmic factors include the competitive system of college students to urnaments, funds for training, the attention paid to the training of physical ability; microcosmic factors come from the coaches and athletes themselves. 3. Through the researches, I find that there is about one-hour physical ability training per week, which is usually carried out after the training course, and most coaches don't adopt the all-round development principle.4. 12 third-class indexes have been selected on the base of consulting experts, testing the multi-index of physical ability, looking up documents.5. The standard of each index has been defined through hiberarchy analyzing method; a single index (third-class index) assessing criteria, the first-class criteria and the grade assessing criteria for comperhensive physical ability have all been made out using the percentum.All these provides standards for assessing CUBA woman basketball players'level.The combination of a single item assessment and comprehensive grade assessment will truly reflect the level of CUBA woman basketball players'physical ability.
