          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Our study investigated the perception of elite handball players, belonging to national teams who during the early stages of their career had similar success rates but with different levels of success at the senior level, on how they characterize their most important club and national team coach. Fourteen athletes were interviewed based on the protocol of Gould, Dieffenbach and Moffett (2002). In the specialization years (Bloom, 1985), the most successful athletes reported that they had one coach in the club, and a national team coach, that permanently marked their sports career and their personality. According to them, their reference coaches taught directly and indirectly (caring, paying individual attention), emphasized expectations, discipline and the attitude that hard work pays off. It is concluded that the coach seems to play a determining role in the development of the athletes, thus highlighting the importance of promoting and strengthening the quality of their education.

          RESUMEN Nuestro estudio investigó la percepción de los jugadores de balonmano de élite, pertenecientes a equipos nacionales que durante las primeras etapas de su carrera han tenido éxito similar, pero con diferentes niveles de éxito a nivel senior, sobre el entrenador del equipo nacional y del club que más los influencio. Catorce atletas fueron entrevistados según el protocolo de Gould, Dieffenbach y Moffett (2002). En los años de especialización (Bloom, 1985), los atletas más exitosos informaron que han tenido un entrenador en el club y un entrenador del equipo nacional, que marcó permanentemente su carrera deportiva y su personalidad. Según ellos, estos entrenadores, enseñaron directa e indirectamente (cuidando, prestando atención individual), enfatizaron sus expectativas, y la actitud que el trabajo duro compensa. Se concluye que el entrenador parece desempeñar un papel determinante en el desarrollo de los atletas, destacando así la importancia de promover y salvaguardar la calidad de su formación.

          RESUMO Este estudo investigou a perceção de jogadores de andebol, pertencentes às seleções nacionais que durante as primeiras etapas das suas carreiras tiveram o mesmo nível de êxito, mas com diferente nível de sucesso no escalão sénior, sobre o selecionador nacional e o treinador do clube que mais os marcaram. Foram entrevistados catorze atletas com base no protocolo de Gould, Dieffenbach e Moffett (2002). Os resultados demonstram que nos anos de especialização (Bloom, 1985), os atletas de maior sucesso mencionaram que tiveram um treinador e um selecionador, que marcou permanentemente a sua carreira desportiva e a sua personalidade. Segundo eles, os seus treinadores de referência ensinavam direta e indiretamente (cuidando, prestando atenção individual), enfatizavam as suas expectativas e a atitude que o trabalho duro compensa. Conclui-se que o treinador parece desempenhar um papel determinante no desenvolvimento dos atletas, destacando assim a importância de promover e salvaguardar a qualidade da sua formação.

          A multidisciplinary approach to talent identification in soccer.

          The requirements for soccer play are multifactorial and distinguishing characteristics of elite players can be investigated using multivariate analysis. The aim of the present study was to apply a comprehensive test battery to young players with a view to distinguishing between elite and sub-elite groups on the basis of performance on test items. Thirty-one (16 elite, 15 sub-elite) young players matched for chronological age (15-16 years) and body size were studied. Test items included anthropometric (n = 15), physiological (n = 8), psychological (n = 3) and soccer-specific skills (n = 2) tests. Variables were split into separate groups according to somatotype, body composition, body size, speed, endurance, performance measures, technical skill, anticipation, anxiety and task and ego orientation for purposes of univariate and multivariate analysis of variance and stepwise discriminant function analysis. The most discriminating of the measures were agility, sprint time, ego orientation and anticipation skill. The elite players were also significantly leaner, possessed more aerobic power (9.0 +/- 1.7 vs 55.5 +/- 3.8 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)) and were more tolerant of fatigue (P < 0.05). They were also better at dribbling the ball, but not shooting. We conclude that the test battery used may be useful in establishing baseline reference data for young players being selected onto specialized development programmes.

            Talent identification and development in soccer.

            In this review, we attempt to integrate the main research findings concerned with talent identification and development in soccer. Research approaches in anthropometry, physiology, psychology and sociology are considered and, where possible, integrated. Although some progress has been made in identifying correlates of playing success, it appears that no unique characteristics can be isolated with confidence. Both biological and behavioural scientists have indicated a strong genetic component in performance of sports such as soccer; nevertheless, the influence of systematic training and development programmes should not be underestimated. We conclude that the sport and exercise sciences have an important support role in the processes of identifying, monitoring and nurturing talented soccer players towards realizing their potential.
