Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the impact of game formats on the running and technical–tactical performance of young soccer players, as well as on players’ dynamics of spatial occupation during competitions. Eleven players of a U-11 team (11.10 ± 0.39 years old) participated in three competitions specifically designed to analyze the impact of different game formats: 5vs5 (F-5), 7vs7 (F-7) and 11vs11 (F-11). Players’ running performance and dynamics of spatial occupation were analyzed using the GPSs devices from WIMU PRO™ devices (10 Hz). Players’ and team's technical–tactical performance was also analyzed using the Team Sports Assessment Procedure (TSAP) and the Offensive Sequence Characterization System (SCSO), respectively. It was observed that the teams tended to adopt a less direct style in the F-11 ( LpW: F7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001 and F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.002), with a lower rate of spatial exploration (F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001 and &&F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.001) and lower running demand ( Sprint: F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001 and F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.014; HSR: F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001 and F-5 vs. F-11 p = .001). In addition, the F-11 allowed the players to have less involvement during the match (F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.003; F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.001), as well as a lower technical–tactical performance (F-7 vs. F-11 p = .003 and F-5 vs. F-11 p = .005). Our results highlight the importance of adjusting the game formats used in youth competitive environments to players’ intrinsic dynamics.

不同比赛形式对青少年足球比赛中球员和球队表现的影响

本研究旨在调查比赛形式对青少年足球运动员的跑步和技术战术表现的影响，以及对球员在比赛中的空间占用动态的影响。一支 U-11 球队的 11 名球员（11.10 ± 0.39 岁）参加了三项比赛，旨在分析不同比赛形式的影响：5vs5（F-5）、7vs7（F-7）和11vs11（F-11）。使用 WIMU PRO™ 设备（10 Hz）的全球定位系统分析了球员的跑步表现和空间占用动态。此外，还分别使用团队运动评估程序（TSAP）和进攻序列特征系统（SCSO）分析了球员和球队的技术战术表现。据观察，在 F-11 中，球队倾向于采用较少的直接风格（LpW：F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001，F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.002），空间探索率较低（F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001，&&F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.001），跑动需求较低（Sprint.F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001，&&F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.002）：F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001，F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.014；HSR：F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.001，F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.001）。此外，F-11 使球员在比赛中的参与度降低（F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.003；F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.001），技术战术表现也较差（F-7 vs. F-11 p = 0.003，F-5 vs. F-11 p = 0.005）。我们的研究结果凸显了在青少年竞技环境中根据球员的内在动力调整比赛形式的重要性。
