Abstract [eng] The competition period for highly skilled basketball players lasts 8 months. The athletes suffer heavy physical loads and mental tension, the matches are held every 3-4 days and the players get tired of traveling to the match. All these factors influence sleep indicators measured among the athletes. The aim of the present thesis is to analyse the variation and correlation between sleep and competition indicators among highly skilled basketball players over the microcycles of the competition period. It has been found that night sleep quality among highly skilled basketball players over the competition period is good and passes 4 stages, the duration of which varies from 6 to 9 weeks. The assessment of the rate of getting asleep varies at the beginning of the competition and gets steady in the middle of the period. The estimates of the rate of getting asleep vary significantly in adjacent microcycles over the last third of the competition period. For two-thirds of the competition period microcycles, daily sleep duration, nocturnal sleep duration and daytime sleep duration among basketball players has been found satisfactory, while for the last third of the period it was considered bad. In the preparatory period microcycles, the estimates of the optimum rate of getting asleep are slightly above satisfactory evaluation values. The variation of complex sleep indicators in the competition period microcycles confirms satisfactory utilization of sleep as a regenerative capacity measure. There is an average correlation between the competition performance factor and the optimum rate of getting asleep, the integrated indicator of sleep and the quality of falling asleep and night sleep duration.
