Abstract

Objective: Investigate the relationship between the initiation age and practice time, in training and competition, and the ranking position of youth elite tennis players. Method: Participated 130 youth elite tennis players with a Brazilian ranking (102 boys and 28 girls) aged 13–18 years, selected in two international competitions. A Binary logistic regression was performed. Results: The results showed that tennis players who started earlier have a 28% better chance of reaching the top 20 ranking, and that each additional year of training increases the chance of a tennis player to reach the top 20 by 1.43 times. Also, each year of experience in competitions increases the chance of tennis players to reach the top 20 ranking by 1.41 times, and that an earlier start each year in participating in competitions increases the chances of an athlete to reach the top 20 by 20%. Conclusion: The initiation age of training and the experience in competitions are important factors there are related to better ranking positions of youth elite tennis players.

青少年精英网球运动员的入门年龄、练习年限和比赛与青少年排名有关

目的：探讨青年优秀网球运动员的起始年龄与练习时间、训练和比赛时间以及排名位置的关系。方法：130名巴西排名的青少年精英网球运动员（102名男孩和28名女孩）参加了两项国际比赛，年龄在13-18岁之间。进行二元逻辑回归。结果：结果显示，起步较早的网球运动员进入前20名的几率高出28%，每多训练一年，网球运动员进入后20名的机会就会增加1.43倍。此外，每年的比赛经验会使网球运动员进入前20名的机会增加1.41倍，而每年提前开始参加比赛会使运动员进入前20%的机会增加20%。结论：训练起始年龄和比赛经验是影响青年优秀网球运动员排名的重要因素。
