The aim of this study was to examine junior-elite football players' perception of their talent development environment by comparing clubs ranked as the top-five and bottom-five in the 2017 Norwegian academy classification.
In total, 92 male junior-elite football players recruited from under-19 teams from five professional football club academies took part in the study. The Talent Development Environment Questionnaire (TDEQ-5; Martindale et al. 2010) was used to measure the players' perceptions of their team environment.
The subscale long-term development focus and support network had the highest score and indicated that they perceived that the environment was high quality with respect to those factors. Players from the top-five-ranked clubs perceived their development environments to be significantly more positive with respect to holistic quality preparation, alignment of expectations, communication and, compared to players from the bottom-five-ranked clubs.
The players' perceptions of the talent development environment seem to be in alignment of the academy classification undertaken by the Norwegian top football association.
本研究旨在通过比较在 2017 年挪威学院分级中排名前五和排名后五的俱乐部,来考察青少年精英足球运动员对其人才发展环境的看法。
共有 92 名男性青少年精英足球运动员从五个职业足球俱乐部学院的 U19 队中招募,参加了这项研究。使用人才发展环境问卷(TDEQ-5;Martindale 等人,2010 年)来衡量运动员对其团队环境的看法。
长期发展重点和支持网络的子量表得分最高,表明他们认为这些因素的环境质量很高。与排名后五的俱乐部的球员相比,排名前五的俱乐部的球员认为他们的发展环境在整体质量准备、期望一致、沟通方面的感知要更加积极。
运动员对人才发展环境的看法似乎与挪威顶级足球协会进行的学院分级一致。
