The XXI Century Academy was a 6-year state-initiated intervention program that served as an alternative to basketball clubs for players in the u-14 and u-18 age groups in Spain, under guidelines established by the Spanish Basketball Federation. It was an important and unique project on talent development in basketball. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no evidence has been reported on long-term athlete development programs in basketball worldwide. The main aim of this report is to describe the design and evaluation methods used for the XXI Century Academy as a long-term intervention program in the elite Spanish Basketball Academy, aiming to prepare basketball players to compete at the elite level.
The monitoring time lasted from 1996 to 2001. A total of 55 players were assigned to the intervention groups based on age, position, maturation level, and country of origin. During this process, participants competed in up to two categories in addition to playing competitive official matches worldwide in international tournaments in their categories and with the national team in the European and World Championships (u-14 - u-18). Participants included 1 NBA player, 3 national A Team players, 10 ACB (First Spanish League) players, 5 LEB (second League) players and 39 LEB-2 EBA (third League) players. Assessments took place in a High-Performance Sports Center (CPT FADURA-GETXO- Basque Government, Getxo, Vizcaya, Spain) and consisted of health questionnaires, anthropometric measures, blood parameters, maturation level, birth age, fitness tests, training volume and intensity, physical activity, technical and tactical training, dietary intake, supplementation and injuries. Each player was assessed 4 times per year (September, December, April, June) for 4 years (16 data points).
This is a purely methodological paper describing the design and evaluation methods used in the XXI Century Project, which will be used as a basis for future reporting of results. Therefore, the results of the project will be reported in subsequent publications.
The viability of the Century XXI Project protocols has been described. This national project of training in basketball closely replicates the physical and technical match-play conditions for professionals and may constitute a useful training tool.
21世纪学院是一项由国家发起的为期6年的干预计划，根据西班牙篮球联合会制定的指导方针，为西班牙14岁和18岁年龄组的球员提供了篮球俱乐部之外的另一种选择。这是一个关于篮球人才培养的重要且独特的项目。据作者所知，全球范围内尚未有关于篮球长期运动员发展计划的相关证据报道。本报告的主要目的是描述21世纪学院作为西班牙精英篮球学院的一项长期干预计划所采用的设计和评估方法，旨在让篮球运动员为精英水平的比赛做好准备。
监测时间从1996年持续到2001年。根据年龄、位置、成熟度水平和原籍国，共有55名球员被分配到干预组。在此过程中，参与者除了在其年龄段的国际比赛以及欧洲和世界锦标赛（14岁 - 18岁）中代表国家队参加正式比赛外，还参加了多达两个类别的比赛。参与者包括1名NBA球员、3名国家A队球员、10名ACB（西班牙第一联赛）球员、5名LEB（第二联赛）球员和39名LEB - 2 EBA（第三联赛）球员。评估在一个高性能体育中心（西班牙巴斯克自治区维兹卡亚省格特肖的CPT FADURA - GETXO - 巴斯克政府体育中心）进行，包括健康问卷、人体测量、血液参数、成熟度水平、出生年龄、体能测试、训练量和强度、身体活动、技术和战术训练、饮食摄入、补充剂和伤病情况。每位球员在4年时间里每年接受4次评估（9月、12月、4月、6月）（共16个数据点）。
这是一篇纯粹描述21世纪项目所采用的设计和评估方法的方法学论文，将作为未来结果报告的基础。因此，该项目的结果将在后续出版物中报告。
已经描述了21世纪项目方案的可行性。这个国家篮球训练项目紧密复制了职业球员的身体和技术比赛条件，可能构成一个有用的训练工具。
