“…The current findings have significant practical implications for coaches and players for their preparation of various match scenarios [14,19]. A tailored approach using real match demands for men’s and women’s players would offer a better foundation for the development of integrated conditioning plans [31,32].…”

“…Previous studies in badminton [10,11,12,13,14] have not accounted for match type and set characteristics when examining sex differences in performances. Prior studies in other racket sports such as tennis [15,16,17], table tennis [18,19,20], squash [21,22] or paddle [23,24] have considered these crucial factors and emphasised the importance of analysing players´ performances according to match-related contexts. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of sex on temporal parameters and notational variables (e.g., range of strokes and point outcome) in elite badminton accounting for match type and set.…”

Background: the aim of the present study was to identify the temporal and notational performance differences between elite men’s and women’s badminton players according to match type and set. Methods: the sample was composed of 60 men’s and 60 women’s matches classified by match type or duration: short (lower quartile), long (upper quartile) and regular matches (interquartile range). Temporal and notational variables were analysed for each match and compared between sexes accounting for match duration. Results: greater intensity for most variables (i.e., rally time, rest time, density, and strokes per match/rally) was exhibited in men’s matches compared with women’s matches (i.e., higher frequency between strokes). In addition, the greater intensity for men compared to women was more pertinent during long matches (13 significant variables) and less evident during short matches (six significant variables). Point outcome displayed similar trends for each sex during matches with more winners for men’s players when serving and more unforced errors for women’s players. Lastly, based on each match type, fewer sex differences were noted during sets 2 and 3, as the match progressed. Conclusion: men’s players performed at a greater intensity than women’s players for different match and set contexts, with this sex difference enhanced when controlling for match type and set. The development of sex- and match-specific scenarios will assist coaches and trainers in the design of specific training drills to enhance the athletic performance of elite badminton players.

The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics and efficiency of service in the best young table tennis players, as well as the existence of differences in service between young players of different ages. The research sample consisted of 18 matches (10 juniors, 8 cadets) at international tournaments in 2018 (ETTU Youth Top 10 in Portugal, European Youth Championship in Romania). The results of the analysis of the Hi-square independence test showed the existence of a statistically significant difference in the number of performed Forhand (FH) and Backhand (BH) short services in table tennis players. By 4.3%, more BH short services were recorded among juniors, while cadets significantly more used FH short services (3.5%) compared to older teammates. The research also proved the existence of a statistically significant difference in certain indicators of service efficiency. By 6.9%, Service without advantage is significantly higher among female cadets, and Service with acquired advantage is 5.9% higher among juniors. There is a difference in other indicators of service efficiency, but it is not statistically significant. Out of a total of 1450 services, only 1% of services were performed incorrectly.

“…In other studies, improving service skills was carried out using walls as a training aid. Limitations of tables and limited space to practice make learning outcomes less optimal (Faber, Elferink-Gemser, Oosterveld, Twisk, & Nijhuis-Van der Sanden, 2017;J. Wang, 2019).…”

The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between concentration and hand eye coordination with the accuracy of backhand backspin service. Quantitative approaches and correlational methods are used in this study. This research was conducted at PTM Gempas. The population in this study were all cadet athletes at PTM Gempas, while the sampling technique used was saturated sampling, which means that all athletes totaling 20 people were used as samples. Player concentration data is collected using a concentration grid test, hand eye coordination data is obtained by throwing a tennis ball test, and data for backhand backspin service accuracy is obtained by testing servicing. The results of this study are as follows: 1) Concentration has a strong enough relationship with the accuracy of backhand backspin service, 2) Hand eye coordination has a strong enough relationship with backhand backspin service accuracy. 3) Concentration and hand eye coordination together have a strong enough relationship with backhand backspin service accuracy. Table tennis coach should train the concentration and eye-hand coordination to improve the athlete's service accuracy.
