本研究調查參與者實際操作木球時，感受到球體的重量、體積、球滾動、敲擊聲、球體重量分佈等問題，因此本研究之主要目的在探討現行木球球體及規格之問題，並反映廣泛木球參與者對球具及球具規格的感受與意見，提出對球具改良的建議，供木球規則修訂委員會作為修訂球具規格之參考，以利木球運動未來的發展。本研究，以600位木球運動參與者共為研究對象，研究方法採用文獻分析與問卷調查法，資料分析採用描述性統計分析，適合度理論分析及卡方獨立性檢定，研究結果發現：一、男女、學生和社會人士、參與時間，對球具感受性或球具改良意見都出現一些明顯差異的調查結果。二、木球球體的重量，有須要進一步改良；而且也需要明文規定球體的檢測方法。依據研究結果提出以下的建議：一、球體改良：1．將木質球體改用硬質樹脂成型，以降低球體的重量。2．把球體分成四種顏色，以利選手與裁判的識別。3．縮小球體重量之公差，提高球體之均一性。4．明文規定硬質樹脂之材質。

The research investigated, which felt the weight and the rolling of the woodball, the sound of the rap and the distribution of the spherical weight when they actually played woodball. Moreover, the research analyzes and tests the result of the investigation by the depiction of the statistics. The objectives of this research were to discuss the problems concerning the existing woodball and specifications, reflect players' perceptions and opinions of woodball and specifications, and propose suggestions on the woodball as reference to the Woodball Regulations Revision Committee for revision of regulation and development of the woodball game. This study surveyed 600 woodball players. The research methods included literature review and questionnaire survey. The data were analyzed with descriptive analysis, fitness analysis, and Chi-Square Test of Independence. The results showed that: First, Gender and social identity (students vs. working professionals) showed significant difference on participating time, perception of the woodball set and comments to set improvement. Second, The weight of the ball gate should be improved. The inspection methods for the ball be specified. Based on the results, the following suggestions were provided: 1) Improvement of the ball: (1)Change the wood material to hard resin to reduce the weight.(2) Classify the ball into four colors for easy identification by the players and referees. (3) Reduce the tolerance of the ball weight to improve the uniformity. (4) Specify the material for the woodball to be hard resin.
