Research has revealed how inherent self-organizing tendencies in athletes and sports teams can be exploited to facilitate emergence of dynamical patterns synergy formation teams. Here, we discuss game models, associated tactical principles play, may implemented constrain co-existing global-to-local local-to-global self-organization team players during training performance. Understanding harness the continuous interplay between these co-existing, bi-directional, coordination is key shaping...
The present study aimed to investigate whether the form and amount of declarative tactical knowledge (DTK) procedural (PTK) influence cognitive effort during soccer performance among young players. We assessed 36 male players from a Brazilian first-division club; participants averaged 14.89 ( SD = 1.42) years age. evaluated DTK video simulation tests PTK through System Tactical Assessment in Soccer. by measures pupil diameter using Mobile Eye Tracking-XG while viewed scenes made game-related...
Objectives : The objective of this study was to describe the effects an extra hour a structured motor program on competence (MC) children 6–10 years old.. Design need for movement interventions enhance MC among school-aged has gained vital importance in last years, given negative secular trends reported. Hence, Portuguese Football Federation organized intervention be implemented extracurricular time primary schools: Super Quinas program. Methods Thirty-nine schools from all Portugal were...
Sludge is an ultrasound finding characterized by the presence of echogenic material in amniotic fluid, generally close to internal cervical os. Associated with a greater risk premature birth, this condition often related intrauterine inflammation, insufficiency and biochemical imbalances. This article explores, detail, main causes, diagnostic methods, therapeutic approaches prognoses sludge, emphasizing importance individualized management.
This study evaluated the one-year impact of a 12-week school-based physical activity (PA) intervention, which added one extra hour structured PA per week, on children's movement behaviors, aerobic fitness, and motor competence (MC). A longitudinal comparison between an experimental group (EG) control (CG) was conducted at baseline (PRE), mid-intervention (DUR), post-intervention (POST), follow-up (FUP). The in single school without randomization. Movement behaviors (accelerometry), fitness...
This study examined players' tactical behaviours based on core principles during small-sided and conditioned games (SSCG) with without floaters the sidelines. A total of 24,068 actions performed by 168 Under-17 academy soccer players were assessed using System Tactical Assessment in Soccer (FUTSAT) across two different SSCG: "Floaters off" (Gk+3 vs. 3+Gk) sidelines" 3+Gk+2 floaters). Results revealed that showed depending SSCG format playing phase. In SSCG, more frequently concentration...
The functional asymmetry of the lower limbs has been regarded as a relevant factor performance football players. We purposed to ascertain whether specific technical training programme for non-preferred foot implications in increasing utilisation rate respective member during game. Young players (n = 71) were randomly divided into experimental group (N 35; 14.37 ± 1.94 years) and control 36; 14.50 1.81 years). study was developed three stages: first, assessment index both game; second,...
The present study aimed to investigate how team's tactical behavior varies within and between age categories in different Small-Sided Conditioned Games' configurations conditions. Twenty non-elite youth male soccer players (U15, n=10, mean age=13.5±1.2 years; U17, age=16.3±0.5 years) were selected. Thirty-six Games (SSCG) played both categories, namely three Representative SSCG (R-SSCG), Maintaining Ball Possession (MBPG) Progression Target (PTG) performed for each configuration (Gk+3vs3+Gk...
Objective The “Super Quinas” project evaluated the effectiveness of an intervention program to improve physical activity, aerobic fitness, sleep, and motor competence on children in primary school. Methods experimental group ( n = 19) enrolled a 12-week (one more extra-curricular activity class 60 min per week) compared CG 19), all aged 9–10 years. Physical (PA) sleep were measured by accelerometry, fitness was Children’s Yo-Yo test (YYIR1C) during 1st week (PRE), 6th (DUR), 12th (POST)...
The fundamental tactical principles of the game soccer represent a set action rules that guide behaviours related to management space. aim this study was compare performance offensive and defensive among youth players from 12 17 years old. sample consisted 3689 actions performed by 48 in three age categories: under 13 (U-13), 15 (U-15), (U-17). Tactical measured using System Assessment Soccer (FUT-SAT). Kruskal Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, Friedman, Wilcoxon, Cohen's Kappa tests were used...
The functional asymmetry of the lower limbs has been considered an important factor in performance soccer players. In this sense, purpose study was to examine effects specific technical training for non-preferred foot on its utilization rate during game; and investigate if interruption a programme influences game. Fifty young players were randomly divided into two groups: G1 (n=26, 9.50±1.04 years) G2 (n=24, 9.58±1.02 years). At beginning first 4 months, each player's use both feet game...
Context Athletes' sleep is the most important recovery strategy and has received growing attention. However, athletes may experience disruptions due to numerous factors, such as training competition workloads, travel, changes in sleep-wake schedules, sleeping environments. They often spend nights unfamiliar hotels, sharing a bed, room, or both with another person might affect duration quality. Objective To analyze effect of shared (SRs) versus individual (IRs) rooms on objective subjective...
Aim: To analyze success and failure of offensive sequences the adopted method in under-15 (U-15) under-17 (U-17) soccer players. Methods: The sample was composed 218 performed by U-15 U-17 players selected from 28 matches, being 18 matches an Italian team 10 a Brazilian team. All which ended finalization were for analysis. Using observational methodology, adapted ad hoc instrument built with variables "number involved", "ball touches", "passing", "duration", "corridor changes". Next, actions...
A assimetria funcional dos membros inferiores tem sido considerada uma condicionante relevante na qualidade de desempenho jogadores Futebol.A presente reflexão baseia-se argumentação em torno quatro temáticas tidas conta pela literatura da especialidade, a saber: (1) relevância e preferência lateral podal para o jogador Futebol; (2) os conceitos técnica habilidade motora suas principais características; (3) modelos aquisição das habilidades motoras particularidades; (4) as características...

Abstract Introduction The “Super Quinas” project evaluated the effectiveness of an intervention program to improve PA, aerobic fitness, sleep, and motor competence on children in primary school. Methods This pilot was conducted 44 schools across country (i.e., Portugal), involved over 1600 school-age (6 10 years old). All completed MC assessment (MCA) PRE test 1st week POST 12th week. Additionally, a sub-group 38 underwent more specific tests body composition fitness) for detailed analysis...

This study examined the effects of playing walking football with and without a goalkeeper (GK) on physiological, physical, technical, perceptual variables in older men. Twenty participants (67 ± 4.7 years) engaged two 5 vs. sessions: one WITH-GK WITH-OUT-GK, using randomized crossover design. Heart rate (HR), distance covered, technical ac-tions, perceived exercise intensity, enjoyment were measured. Results showed significantly higher average HR (131 bpm 123 bpm, p &lt; .001), %HRmax...
