Demandas cinemáticas de competición internacional en el hockey sobre hierba femenino
2019
Objective. To compare the kinematic demands on international
women field hockey players during official competition
matches. Materials and methods. Sixteen women players
(age: 24.7 ± 2.8; weight: 57.9 ± 5.9 kg; height: 165.2 ± 4.9
cm) belonging to the Spanish national team were monitored
during 5 matches of the European Championship using global
positioning systems (GPS). The analyses were carried out
according to the players’ positions (defenders, midfielders
and forwards), the quarters in the game (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4),
and the number of minutes played. The data analysed included
distances, accelerations and decelerations in different
intensity ranges. Results. The defenders showed less high-intensity
activity (speeds, accelerations and decelerations)
than midfielders and forwards (9.4 ± 2.4%; ES: 0.78 with
the midfielders and 33.1 ± 7.2%; ES: 2.1, with the defenders).
The analysis by quarters showed that in Q4 activity
was the highest for all positions. In terms of the number of
minutes played, the cluster analysis grouped the players into
3 groups according to the number of minutes played (<32,
32-45 and >45 minutes). The athletes who played <32 covered
the greatest distance at a sprint (>21 km/h) and high-intensity
distance (>15 km/h) per minute of play compared
to the group who played >45 minutes. Conclusions. The
results of this study show that the physical demands on elite
women hockey players depend on their position on the field,
and that there is more activity in the last quarter and less
relative high-intensity kinematic activity among the players
who play more minutes during the match.
