Effect on agility of modeling that accentuates coordination stimuli in soccer players

Abstract

Methodology:As part of the professional practices of Sports Training students of the UdeA, they carried out an investigation with the objective of measuring the effect on the agility of U-20 soccer players of the Ciclos F.C. within the framework of a planification by Modelamiento to emphasize coordination tasks during the initial activations of the sessions. A six-week training plan was designed and executed, with two weekly stimuli.The team was randomly divided evenly, but given the loss of subjects during the process of the 23 players 19 remained, a GE, (experimental group n=12) and a GC, (control group n=7).To measure agility, which in this study was understood as a result of coordination emphasis, the Illinois test and a variant driving a ball for specific purposes were used Results: It was determined by Shapiro-Wilk, T-Student tests and Wilcoxon ranks that both groups improved significantly, intra-group in classic Illinois (p= 0.007) GC and (p=0.012 GE) and not in the specific test (p=0.636 and p=0.291); however, the only significant change in the inter-group was the mean of the modified (balloon) GE test (p= 0.032).  Conclusions: To perform a sports preparation by Modelamiento, with coordinative accentuation has an effect on the improvement of agility with the ball, in the general test, despite the high result previous improved in both groups, attributable to the general training and the competition they were developing.
