“…The reported ball velocities in our study are comparable to the earlier reported studies (Kotzamanidis et al, 1976;Jöris et al, 1985;Edwards van Muijen et al, 1991;Barata, 1992;Fleck et al, 1992;Bayios et al, 2001;van den Tillaar & Ettema, 2003van den Tillaar & Ettema, 2004, 2006, 2009aZapartidis et al, 2007;Granados et al, 2008;Ettema et al, 2008;Fabrica et al, 2008;van den Tillaar & Cabri, 2012). Mostly, the reported kinematics were the same as reported by van den Tillaar and Ettema (2004Ettema ( , 2009a; van den Tillaar and Ettema (2007); Wagner et al (2011);van den Tillaar and Cabri (2012).…”

The aim of this study was to compare the performance (throwing velocity of the ball) and kinematics of overarm throwing with the circular and whip-like wind up in elite handball players. Twenty-two elite handball players (11 men and 11 women) conducted both types of throws. The ball release velocity, maximal ball acceleration, maximal velocity of the end points of the five segments and maximal angles, angles at ball release and maximal angular velocities of the 11 joint movements and their timing during the throw were analyzed. Significantly higher ball release velocities (21.9 m/s vs 20.6 m/s) were reached together with higher maximal linear velocities of the end points of all segments and longer throwing time with the circular wind up than with the whip-like wind up. Furthermore, it seems that the timing and amount of maximal angular pelvis rotation was the main contributor to the difference in the maximal ball release velocity between the two wind ups. The findings support the observation that overarm throwing with the circular wind up results in higher ball releases but also a longer throwing movement in comparison to whip-like wind up throws.

“…Regarding physical fitness, significant differences among playing positions have been reported only for female adult players, specifically for the standing long jump, 30m sprint (Rogulj et al, 2005) and throwing velocity (Fábrica et al, 2008).…”

“…A high aerobic fitness is important for wings and backs as they are the players who perform the most picks and require high levels of aerobic capacity to aid recovery after bouts of high-intensity activity. In addition, it has been reported that players during the game should maintain the ability of the optimal output in shooting and throwing effectiveness regarding aiming accuracy (Zapartidis et al, 2007) or ball velocity (Fábrica et al, 2008). The demands of aerobic capacity on goalkeepers differ from field players on a handball team.…”

Profile of young handball players by playing position and determinants of ball throwing velocity This study defined the differences in physical qualities and anthropometric characteristics among playing positions in young male handball players, and investigated the relationship between ball throwing velocity and all measured parameters. 182 young male handball players, aged 14.3yrs, with playing experience of 4.5yrs, were classified as: back players, centre backs, pivots, wing players, and goalkeepers. Body height, body mass, BMI, arm span, hand length, standing long jump, 30m sprint, flexibility, VO2max and throwing velocity were measured. Significant differences were detected among individual positions for all measured variables, except for flexibility. Backs were tallest, while pivots showed the largest arm span and hand length. Wings were shortest, with the lowest weight and BMI. Backs and wings performed best in the standing long jump, 30m sprint, flexibility and VO2max. Goalkeepers underperformed in all motor abilities. Ball velocity significantly correlated to all variables except for BMI and flexibility. Anthropometric and physical differences exist among different positions in young male handball players. These parameters influence ball velocity. The findings suggest that a high performance level requires advanced physical qualities as well as anthropometric features for these ages, and coaches should apply specific training programs for each playing position.

“…In the context of water polo, Royal and colleagues (2006) adopted an incremental exercise with specific motor skills to induce fatigue and identified that despite significant increases in RPE and heart rate, which are perceived fatigability indicators (Enoka & Duchateau, 2016), shooting accuracy and VBALL were unaltered. On the other hand, other studies that evaluated the influence of fatigue on the performance of handball shooting skills demonstrated a decrease in accuracy and VBALL, which may be eujapa.upol.cz related to the player's position (Fábrica et al, 2008) and reduction in the rest interval between fatigue-inducing exercises (Nuño et al, 2016).…”

“…However, the researchers have presented divergent results regarding the effect of fatigue on throwing performance in team sports. By adopting the simulated Handball match, Fábrica et al (2008) identified a decrease in throwing velocity in the second half, while Zapardiel Cortés et al (2018) did not detect differences when analysing real games. Furthermore, even though Nuño et al (2016) observed significant reductions in both the accuracy and velocity of the shots after a specific exercise circuit with a gradual decrease in the interval between laps, Andrade et al (2016) did not identify changes after performing simulated game activities.…”

This study evaluated the influence of acute fatigue on shooting skill performance in goalball penalty shots. Eleven sub-elite male players were evaluated in an official court using a two-dimensional procedure (60 Hz) to compute the mean radial error, bivariate variable error and accuracy, and three-dimensional kinematics (240 Hz) to measure ball velocity. Rating of perceived exertion, blood lactate concentration and knee extension isometric maximal voluntary contractions were assessed at rest and immediately after the completion of an incremental test specific to goalball. Although significant differences were observed for rating of perceived exertion (pre: M = .36 AU, SD = .67; post: M = 9.27 AU, SD = .79), blood lactate concentration (M = 1.33 mM, SD = .51; M = 9.04 mM, SD = 2.25) and peak force (M = 597.85 N, SD = 132.35; M = 513.37 N, SD =107.00) at the end of the incremental test, no differences were identified in the pre and post moments for mean radial error (M = .10 m, SD = 1.01; M =.37 m, SD = 2.19), bivariate variable error (M = 3.56 m, SD = .70; M = 3.25 m, SD = .70), accuracy (M = 3.68 m, SD = .74; M = 3.78 m, SD = 1.13) and ball velocity (M = 18.53 m . s -1 , SD = 1.53; M =18.46 m . s -1 , SD = 1.65). We concluded that even though significant levels of fatigability can be attributed to the incremental test specific to goalball, shooting skill performance in goalball penalty shots does not appear to be affected. However, further investigations are needed so that goalball coaches can develop strategies that contribute to improve performance in this technical action. Such improvements are decisive for the outcome of a match.
