The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a 12-week-game-based training versus a traditional multilateral approach on motor skills acquisition and physical fitness, in a group of U9 children playing soccer.
Forty children aged 9 or younger (U9) recruited from a local soccer school were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to a game-based training program (GB) or a multilateral training (MA) approach. The training programs lasted 12 weeks, and players were tested at baseline and at the end of the program (12-week follow-up). The outcomes were: standing long jump test, shuttle dribble test, 10×5 shuttle run test and Mini-Cooper test.
Within-group comparisons showed statistically-significant improvements in both of the groups: standing long lump (P<0.0001), shuttle dribble test (P<0.0001), shuttle run test (P<0.0001) and Mini-Cooper test (P<0.0001). Furthermore, the MA group showed better performance in the shuttle run test after 12 weeks of training compared to the GB group (P=0.0002; +8%).
A multilateral approach promotes physical development in U9 soccer players without affecting learning of-soccer skills. Therefore, a multilateral approach should be included in soccer training programs to ensure an optimal development in young soccer players.
本研究旨在探究基于游戏的 12 周训练与传统多边训练对 U9 年龄段儿童足球运动员运动技能获取和身体素质的影响。
从当地一所足球学校招募了 40 名 9 岁及以下的儿童（U9），按 1:1 的比例随机分配到基于游戏的训练（GB）组或多边训练（MA）组。训练计划持续 12 周，参与者在基线和计划结束时（12 周随访）接受测试。结果：采用立定跳远测试、运球折返测试、10×5 折返跑测试和 Mini-Cooper 测试。
两组内比较均显示出统计学上的显著改善：立定跳远（P<0.0001）、运球折返测试（P<0.0001）、折返跑测试（P<0.0001）和 Mini-Cooper 测试（P<0.0001）。此外，MA 组在 12 周训练后在折返跑测试中的表现优于 GB 组（P=0.0002；+8%）。
多边训练法可以促进 U9 年龄段足球运动员的身体发展，而不会影响他们学习足球技能。因此，多边训练法应该纳入足球训练计划，以确保年轻足球运动员的最佳发展。
