Characterization and Evaluation of young ring hockey team

Ring hockey is a complex team sport with physical tecnical and tactical high demans (Manaças, 1988; Rodriguez, 1991). In teh absence of a battery of specific tests we proceed to the aplication of the 20 meters shuttle run test (Luc Leger, 1982) in youthfuk athletes of the juveniles.

Relationship between antropometric, corporal composition and performance in young swimmers, boys and girls

The young athlete is physiologically unique from the adult and must be considered differently. The growth and development of their bones, muscles, nerves, and organs largely dictate their physiological and performance capacities (Bar–Or, 1983; Costill & Wilmore, 1994; Stager et al., 2008). Swimming performance, and the required times to reach a competition (TAC), shoud look for those diferences and should be compatibles with them.
