The Effluence of Training on the Development of Selected Physical Abilities among Young Volleyball Players

Abstract

The present study aimed to analyze possible determinants of the attack effectiveness in side-out and transition, with reference to the effect of reception and defence, the speed of the attack (attack tempo) and attack type, under the youth male elite category. In type of study, the authors differentiated studies that analyzed a previous modification not proposed by the authors and studies that analyzed a modification proposed by the authors of each study. This review differentiates the purpose of the proposed modifications and the purpose of the authors when conducting their studies. We also differentiated whether the goals were achieved and what motivated the authors to carry out the modifications or to conduct the studies. In the volleyball game complex analysis, it is observed that the side-out possesses more stable initial organization conditions, as the ball is recovered from the most predictable action of the game, the serve, thus creating favourable conditions to the offensive organization. Hence, it is plausible that in this complex the effect of the attack will not depend on its speed, because this is common. In opposition, according to the same author (idem), the transition has more unstable initial organization conditions, caused by the action of the opponent's attack, thus promoting slower attacks. Consequently, the increase of the attack tempo in this complex optimizes the effect of attack, since it is not so common.

Keywords: attack effectiveness, speed of the attack, offensive skills.
