To examine BSAT\u2019s reliability, validity, sensitivity, and its relationship with planned agility, sprinting, jumping, and eye-hand coordination, 26 elite male boxers (16 Chinese, 10 Cuban, including five world-class) were recruited. The mean age and training experience of the participants were equal to 22 \u00b1 3.31 years old and 11.54 \u00b1 2.34 years, respectively. In addition to the BSAT, participants underwent planned agility tests (T-test and Y pre-planned agility, YPA), reactive agility test (Y reactive agility, YRA), perceptual decision-making assessment (Decision-making time, DMT), jumping tests (Counter movement jump, CMJ and Squat-Jump SJ), sprint tests (6 and 10 m), and a eye-hand coordination (EHC) test. To determine the discriminant validity of the BSAT, participants were divided into two groups based on their performance in international and domestic competitions: the Top Elite Group (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 12) and the General Elite Group (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 14). The retest results collected at 7-day intervals demonstrated that the BSAT exhibits high reliability, validity, and sensitivity (ICC = 0.966,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). It accurately evaluates the specialized agility qualities of boxers and can detect small yet meaningful changes in performance. Top elite athletes demonstrated significantly better BSAT performance than the general elite group, evidenced by shorter total time (30.85 \u00b1 3.52 s\n                    <jats:italic>vs<\/jats:italic>\n                    . 37.97 \u00b1 3.39 s;\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001) and faster average response time (1.5 \u00b1 0.23 s\n                    <jats:italic>vs<\/jats:italic>\n                    . 1.98 \u00b1 0.23 s;\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). The test\u2019s discriminative power was robust, with an Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 0.93 (95% CI [0.84\u20130.99];\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). BSAT scores strongly correlated with both the planned agility T-test (r = 0.76\u20130.77,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001) and the reactive Y-test (r = 0.77,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001), and showed moderate to high correlations with other physical traits like sprinting (r = 0.49\u20130.50,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.05), jumping (r = 0.53\u20130.65,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.01), and eye-hand coordination (r = 0.70\u20130.72,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.001). In conclusion, the BSAT is a reliable and valid tool for assessing boxing-specific agility. Additionally, the BSAT can serve as a practical tool for coaches to preliminarily assess boxers\u2019 sprinting ability, lower-body power, and eye-hand coordination. The test also allows for real-time observation of sport-specific movements, helping to identify technical weaknesses.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.21458","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,24]],"date-time":"2026-06-24T08:47:07Z","timestamp":1782290827000},"page":"e21458","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Assessment of reliability and validity of specific agility test indicators for amateur boxing"],"prefix":"10.7717","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Yifei","family":"Luo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Athletic Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"},{"name":"Shanghai Key Lab of Human Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dexin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Athletic Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"},{"name":"Shanghai Key Lab of Human Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qingyuan","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sports Science Research Center of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Urumqi, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chao","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dalian University College of Physical Education, Dalian University, Da Lian, Liao Ning, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rui","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Athletic Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"},{"name":"Shanghai Key Lab of Human Performance, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4443","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-1","volume-title":"AOB competition rules","author":"AIBA","year":"2015"},{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-2","volume-title":"AIBA technical and competition rules","author":"AIBA","year":"2021"},{"issue":"1","key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"160","DOI":"10.1080\/1750984X.2016.1266376","article-title":"Sports vision training: a review of the state-of-the-art in digital training techniques","volume":"11","author":"Appelbaum","year":"2018","journal-title":"International Review of Sport and Exercise Psychology"},{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"348","DOI":"10.1519\/JSC.0b013e3181ef64cb","article-title":"V\u0307o2 requirements of boxing exercises","volume":"25","author":"Arseneau","year":"2011","journal-title":"Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research"},{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.24985\/ijass.2010.22.1.1","article-title":"Heart rate, oxygwn consumption and blood lactate responses during specific training in amateur boxing","volume":"22","author":"Asok","year":"2010","journal-title":"IJASS (International Journal of Applied Sports Sciences)"},{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"841498","DOI":"10.3389\/fphys.2022.841498","article-title":"Reliability, validity, and sensitivity of a specific agility test and its relationship with physical fitness in karate athletes","volume":"13","author":"Ben Hassen","year":"2022","journal-title":"Frontiers in Physiology"},{"key":"10.7717\/peerj.21458\/ref-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"452","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2012-091771","article-title":"Amateur boxing in the last 59 years.
