Resumen (es)

Este estudio compara los grupos con menor y mayor variabilidad de velocidad de pico de altura en relación con la eficiencia del comportamiento táctico ofensivo, defensivo y general, a lo largo de una temporada competitiva. También debe presentar el perfil de comportamiento táctico en juegos competitivos. Veinte y un joven jugador de fútbol participarán en el estudio con dos momentos de evaluación. También fueron analizadas cinco partidas competitivas. La Compensación de Madurez fue verificada y el Sistema de Evaluación Táctica validó la eficiencia del comportamiento táctico en el Fútbol. Concluimos que los jugadores con mayor variabilidad de velocidad de pico de altura presentan mayor eficiencia en el comportamiento táctico defensivo y en el juego. En un contexto competitivo, los jugadores de fútbol sub-13 y sub-15 presentan eficiencia y alto comportamiento táctico durante una temporada competitiva.

Resumen (en)

This study compares groups with lower and higher variability of peak height velocity concerning offensive, defensive, and general tactical behavior efficiency across a competitive season. It also aims to present the tactical behavior profile in competitive games. Twenty-one young soccer players participated in the study, which included two assessment moments. Additionally, five competitive matches were analyzed. Maturity Offset was verified, and the System of Tactical Assessment was used to assess tactical behavior efficiency in soccer. Based on the results, we concluded that players with higher peak height velocity variability exhibited greater defensive (t = -2.367; p = .029; moderate ES) and in-game tactical behavior efficiency (t = -2.507; p = .021; moderate ES). In the competitive context, U-13 and U-15 soccer players demonstrated stable tactical behavior efficiency throughout the competitive season.

Também visa apresentar o perfil do comportamento tático em jogos competitivos. Vinte e um jovens jogadores de futebol participaram do estudo com dois momentos de avaliação. Também foram analisadas cinco partidas competitivas. O Maturity Offset foi verificado e o System of Tactical Assessment avaliou a eficiência do comportamento tático no Futebol. Concluímos que jogadores com maior variabilidade da velocidade de pico de altura apresentaram maior eficiência do comportamento tático defensivo e em jogo. No contexto competitivo, jogadores de futebol sub-13 e sub-15 apresentaram eficiência estável e alta do comportamento tático durante uma temporada competitiva.
