Abstract

ABSTRACT Rugby Sevens has been extensively investigated in elite athletes, but talented teenagers require more attention from sports development researchers. This study aimed to investigate a 16-week intervention of rugby training on physical performance in talented girls. Fifteen girls (14.00 ± 0.53 years, 156.27 ± 4.03 cm, 52.53 ± 5.67 kg) selected as physically talented for rugby to participate in a sport-development program were divided into two groups. The intervention group (IG) carried out two-session per week of rugby training for 16 weeks. The control group (CG) did not perform any type of physical training. A battery of physical tests was carried out before and after the intervention. A two-way ANOVA with group*time was carried out for analysis. Both groups increased their performance in countermovement jump, handgrip isometric strength, linear sprints, and 5-m multiple shuttle test (p < 0.05). However, squat jump, change of direction speed (CODS), and running anaerobic sprint test improved in IG (p < 0.05), while no difference was found in the CG. These results suggest that variables related to power output and CODS may be improved with the rugby training due to the specificity of the modality in talented girls.

一项为期16周的橄榄球训练计划提高了天才女孩的力量和转向速度

摘要：七人制橄榄球已经在精英运动员中得到了广泛的研究，但有天赋的青少年需要更多的体育发展研究人员的关注。本研究旨在调查为期16周的橄榄球训练对天才女孩身体表现的干预。15名女孩（14.00±0.53岁，156.27±4.03厘米，52.53±5.67公斤）被选为橄榄球体能天才，参加体育发展计划，她们被分为两组。干预组（IG）每周进行两次为期16周的橄榄球训练。对照组（CG）没有进行任何类型的体能训练。在干预前后进行了一系列身体测试。采用组*时间的双向方差分析进行分析。两组在反跳、握力、直线短跑和5米多跳测试中的成绩均有所提高（p<0.05），而深蹲跳跃、转向速度（CODS）和无氧短跑测试在IG中均有所改善（p<0.05）。这些结果表明，与力量输出和CODS相关的变量可能会随着橄榄球训练而改善，因为这种模式在天才女孩中具有特殊性。

期刊介绍： High Ability Studies provides a forum for scholars in a variety of disciplines associated with the development of human abilities to their highest level. It is a medium for the promotion of high ability, whether through the communication of scientific research, theory, or the exchange of practical experience and ideas. The contents of this journal are unique in reflecting concerns and recent developments in this area from childhood and across the whole life span in a variety of contexts. Far from being restricted to the traditional focus on high-level cognitive development, it also presents investigations into all other areas of human endeavour, including sport, technology, the arts, business, management and social relations.
