The relevance of the study is determined by the specifics of student sports, which combine academic and athletic activities. This leads to a deficit in training load volume and requires a special approach to monitoring athletes’ functional state to adjust their preparation. The aim of the study was to identify the features of functional readiness among players of different positions (point guards, forwards, centers) in a women’s student basketball team during the competitive period. Research methods included comprehensive testing of 10 basketball players. The functions of the central nervous system (test “Reaction to a Moving Object,” stabilographic test with stepwise impact) and the muscular system (5-second Wingate test) were assessed. The results of the study revealed specific profiles for each individual playing position. Point guards showed the shortest reaction latency and the best ability to recover the anaerobic system. Forwards demonstrated the highest reaction accuracy, the highest relative peak power, but also the greatest fatigue of the anaerobic system. The center players were characterized by the smallest relative power drop (fatigue resistance), but the worst recovery indicators and slower motor reaction. The obtained data have scientific and practical significance, providing objective criteria for individualizing the training process and tactical planning, taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of the functional qualities of players in different positions. The results can serve as model characteristics for sports orientation.
