Entrenamiento coordinativo y habilidades motrices en futbolistas base de 8 a 10 años
Coordination training and motor skill development in grassroots soccer players aged 8 to 10Barra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
El desarrollo de las habilidades motrices en la infancia constituye un pilar del entrenamiento deportivo formativo, sobre todo en el fútbol base. Es por ello, el objetivo del estudio fue determinar la influencia de un programa de entrenamiento coordinativo en el desarrollo de habilidades motrices en jugadores de fútbol base de 8 a 10 años de la Península de Santa Elena, Ecuador. Se adoptó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño cuasiexperimental pretest-postest y grupo control no equivalente, con 23 participantes distribuidos en grupo experimental (n=12) y control (n=11), evaluados mediante pruebas estandarizadas de coordinación general, equilibrio dinámico, agilidad y control postural. El grupo experimental mostró mejoras con tamaños del efecto elevados (d=2.00 a 2.37), en tanto el control no presentó variaciones con significación estadística (p>.05). Se concluye que, la aplicación del programa coordinativo favoreció el desarrollo de habilidades motrices en futbolistas base.
The development of motor skills in childhood constitutes a cornerstone of formative sports training, particularly in grassroots soccer. Consequently, the objective of this study was to determine the influence of a coordination training program on the development of motor skills in youth soccer players aged 8 to 10 in the Santa Elena Peninsula, Ecuador. A quantitative approach was adopted, utilizing a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a non-equivalent control group. The study involved 23 participants divided into an experimental group (n=12) and a control group (n=11), who were evaluated through standardized tests of general coordination, dynamic balance, agility, and postural control. The experimental group showed improvements with large effect sizes (d=2.00 to 2.37), whereas the control group exhibited no statistically significant variations (p > .05). It is concluded that the implementation of the coordination program fostered the development of motor skills in grassroots soccer players.
