It is important to find the most reliable method possible which will draw on criteria and scientific standards to increase the chances of champions by generalizing the testing on a larger number of individuals and selecting that young people have a chance of succeeding. The lack of certainty in all what is being done on the detection and selection shown was how it is difficult to conduct well was the work of sports talent identification. To conduct this study, we chose to study of essential data, namely .the skills ' sample is composed of 21 coaches, having a great experience, at which on a request to assess skills required in football and their degree of solicitation. The analysis of the results show that (expert) coaches have estimated that among the 13 skills studied, five from among them emergent and get a certain unanimity and for which there is agreement .Skills required for the practice of football in order of importance are endurance cardio respiratory, the explosive force of the lower members, the dynamic force of the lower members, speed and the strength of the trunk. Experts have withdrawn the other ruled less specific to football. And for the preparation of tests simplified and affordable we have selected three skills that we judges consistent with the categories of ages studied.

In this article we examine different analytical relations, describing the process of development motional skill in sports. It is shown, that this process can be described as an exponential function where changes of results in sports depend on duration of training or amount of training, as Pareto distribution and Verhulst logistic function. As a result of the research of power functions, which approximate competitive results of four mini-golf players within 5 years, we established a criteria of development of motional skills in the form of scree. It is found, that the power function is the best one for describing improvements of sport achievements on the stage of primary training (1-2 years of training), and exponential function better fits for stages of perfecting of skills and sport mastery (more than 4 years of training). During the immersed training both models have precise enough approximation from 10-th to 70-th competitive round. Besides, all the data on sport results, starting from the very beginning of training, must be taken in the account during the process of modeling and forecasting of sport achievements. Offered models and criteria can be used for establishing of rated norms and forecasting of results in kinds of sport with primary demonstration of coordinating capabilities of accurate performance of purposeful motions.

The purpose of the study was Compare the selected Physical fitness and Physiological variables between Volleyball and Handball players. Thirty players of handball and Volleyball represented their university in the Inter University tournament during 2011-2012 session from Patiala district were selected as subjects, their age ranged from 17 to 28. The study was an experimental research, the selected physical fitness and physiological variables such as flexibility, endurance, agility, explosive strength, heart rate, vital capacity, and cardiovascular endurance were measured. Analysis of Data ‘t’ test were applied to check the significant difference between the group. There was significant difference between physical i.e. flexibility and explosive strength & physiology variables and there was no significant difference between physical variables i.e. Endurance and agility. Conclusion: it was concluded that there was a significant difference in some selected physical & physiological variables i.e. flexibility, explosive strength & endurance, agility and this type of study need to replicate in variety of players, both male and female or different level of age group, and higher level like national level, taking a large number of subjects.

This study was designed to determine The professional skills of Coaches which are identified and judged on a large number of factors (Belkadi, Benbernou, & Gleyses, 2014). The purpose of this article is to describe the views of the four different professionals actors on coach skills; athletes, coaches, leaders and experts from the Algerian judo sport system, all the actors of that system have responded to the same series of questions regarding coaches skills. Across the five groups of specific professional skills, the views expressed are more similar than dissimilar, with each professional emphasizing a different item of the coaches’ skills. The information presented aligns both with and shows that, coaches and athletes have the same representations of technical and teaching skills. However, a discrepancy of representations regarding the organizational and managerial skills. Stakeholder views are compared to the coaching science literature and recommendations to develop a professional skills repository of the judo coach are provided.

The use of doping as a substance or method is potentially harmful to the health of the athletes and also gives them an unfair competitive edge. It represents an anathema, which poses great threat to the development of sports ideals in the modern day sports competitions. It is illegal and unethical to the sanctity of sports. It also has both short and long term side-effects on the athletes. This paper examined the psycho-social factors that may facilitate the utilization of doping substances either on a continuous or intermittent basis by athletes in Nigeria. A sample of 360 elite athletes in nine states of Nigeria was selected using purposive, simple and stratified random sampling techniques. A- 21- item self-developed questionnaire was used to gather relevant information for the study. Frequency counts, percentages and chi-square were used to analyze the data collected. Findings revealed that the prominent psychological and sociological determinants in the utilization of doping substances by athletes included the desire for excellent performance and gaining monetary or material rewards. It was therefore, recommended that athletes should be given social-network support, and be properly oriented towards adjustment to the various psycho-social conditions that may prompt them to the use of doping substances.

This article discusses some of the biomechanical and physiological characteristics of holding the club when hitting the ball in putting and minigolf. Depending on the position of the player’s hands on the grip and the orientation of his stance relative to the hole, the author identifies four possible ways of performing playing actions. The author assesses the size of the gravitational and centrifugal forces acting on the player’s upper limbs when hitting the ball and determines the parameters of the zone of vision and the location of the projection of the “blind spot” and the zone of clear binocular vision onto the play surface. The article makes suppositions about the more effective way for the player to hold the club and maintain his stance when performing playing actions. To verify the hypothesis, the author experimentally determines the impact of various ways of holding the club and the player’s orientation relative to the hole on the player’s performance in the game. The experiment featured 16 minigolf players with different levels of qualification (from beginners to masters of sport). The participants were youths and girls ages 16 to 22. Each participant attempted 240 strikes in a regular stance and a reverse stance with a straight and a reverse grip (60 strikes for each variant of stance and way of holding the club). As a result of the experiment, using various statistical criteria, the author establishes that all variants of play are equally efficient and the technique of performing playing actions can vary and is chosen based on one’s subjective perceptions of the comfort of taking a strike. The effectiveness of a particular way of holding the club is, mainly, determined by the prior motor experience of the trial subjects.

This study aims to assess the effect of Bilar, a product made from the honey bee drone larvae, on stationary and oscillatory characteristics of athletes’ microcirculation system. The study featured 54 athletes practicing judo. Data obtained before and after the course intake of the api-product testifies to the economicalness of the operation of the microcirculation system at rest, which is manifested in a decline in the perfusion and diffusion of oxygen from the blood to the tissues and its utilization by the tissues. The effectiveness of the use of the natural adaptogen was accompanied by an increase in neurogenic and myogenic vasodilatation. Incorporating Bilar into athletes’ diet at the pre-competition training cycle stage improves microhemodynamics, stimulates the utilization of oxygen from the blood to the tissues, and boosts microvessel reactivity, which expands the body’s adaptation/accustomization potential at the tissue level.
