“…Few studies have demonstrated physical responses by goalball athletes during a laboratory condition, field tests, and/or a game context. In the LaB, the majority of studies investigate the morphological profile ( Çolak et al, 2004 ; Scherer et al, 2012 ), anthropometric measurements ( Calıskan et al, 2011 ; Molik et al, 2015 ), and general physical fitness ( Çolak et al, 2004 ; Karakaya et al, 2009 ; da Cunha Furtado et al, 2016 ). Gulick and Malone (2011) were the first authors to compare aerobic fitness in female goalball athletes obtained during the LaB condition (i.e., incremental test) to those observed during a field test, similar to a beep test, but performed on the goalball court.…”

“…The official game comprises two halves of 12 min with three teammates on each side of the court, who successively perform offensive and defensive actions ( Morato et al, 2012 ). The majority of studies with goalball players have examined functional, anthropometric, and morphological evaluation aspects ( Çolak et al, 2004 ; Karakaya et al, 2009 ; Calıskan et al, 2011 ; Scherer et al, 2012 ; Molik et al, 2015 ; da Cunha Furtado et al, 2016 ). Other studies analyzed aerobic parameters in field tests ( Çolak et al, 2004 ; Karakaya et al, 2009 ; Gulick and Malone, 2011 ; da Cunha Furtado et al, 2016 ), and technical-tactical performances in tests or during the game ( Stamou et al, 2007 ; Bowerman et al, 2011 ; Morato et al, 2012 , 2017 , 2018; Molik et al, 2015 ; Link and Weber, 2018 ; Monezi et al, 2018 ).…”

Our aims were to compare physiological parameters from the laboratory environment (LaB) and simulated goalball games (GaM), test relationships between physiological parameters in the laboratory and game technical performance (GTP), and examine the associations between physiological and technical responses during games. Seven elite athletes from the Brazilian National Team performed in LaB environment; (i) an incremental test to determine peak oxygen consumption (O2PEAK), its corresponding speed, and peak blood lactate concentration and (ii) submaximal and supramaximal efforts to estimate maximal anaerobic contribution (AnC). In GaM condition, simulated games were also performed to determine physiological responses throughout the game, and to analyze the GTP (number of throws, defenses, recovery, and density of actions). No correlations (unclear) were found between laboratory and games analyses for O2PEAK [47.3 (17.2) vs. 25.8 (18.2) mL⋅Kg-1⋅min-1], peak blood lactate concentrations [10.2 (5.4) vs. 2.0 (0.7) mM], and total AnC [21.0 (14.0) vs. 4.8 (6.1) mL Kg-1]. O2PEAK in the laboratory condition presented very likely correlations with throw and recovery frequency in games (r = -0.87 and confidence interval [CI] = 0.41; r = -0.90 and CI = 0.35; respectively). Oxygen consumption remained above baseline while blood lactate concentration remained unchanged during the games. The very likely correlation between anaerobic alactic contribution and action density (r = 0.95 and CI = 0.25) highlights the importance of the alactic metabolism. In general, our study demonstrates that goalball can be characterized as a high-intensity intermittent effort, where athlete performance is based on aerobic metabolism predominance while determinant actions are supplied by the anaerobic alactic metabolism. Specifically, higher values of LaB vs. GaM highlighted the need for standardization of specific protocols for goalball evaluation, mainly for the reproduction of ecologically valid values. In addition, O2PEAK correlated with recovery frequency in the LaB condition, demonstrating that passive or low-intensity recovery between actions is fundamental to maintain performance.

“…Biomechanical research analysed different shot techniques and their impact on ball speed [ 9 ]. Other studies focussed on physical properties of the ball [ 10 ], physiological load during matches [ 11 ], anthropometric characteristics of top level players [ 12 , 13 ], requirement profiles for goalball coaches [ 14 ], and provided guidance for teaching in schools [ 15 ]. In addition, goalball-specific testing methods were developed for auditory perception [ 16 ] and endurance [ 17 ].…”

This research identifies which shots types in goalball are most likely to lead to a goal and herby provides background information for improving training and competition. Therefore, we observed 117 elite level matches including 20,541 shots played in the regular situation (3 vs. 3) using notational analysis. We characterized the shots by using their target sector (A-E), technique (traditional, rotation), trajectory (flat, bounce), angle (straight, diagonal and outcome (goal, violation, out, blocked). In our data, a χ2-test showed a significantly higher goal rate for men (3.9%) compared to women (3.0%). For men, we found a significantly higher goal rate in the intersection sectors between players C (5.6%), D (4.9%), and in the outer sector A. In sector A, goal rate was higher only for straight shots (6.6%). Technique and trajectory did not affect goal rate for men, but flat shots showed a higher violation rate (3.2%) compared to bounce shouts (2.0%). In women's goalball, goal rate was higher only on sector D (4.4%). Bounce-rotation shots were the most successful (5.5%). We conclude that men should focus on shots to sectors C and D (called pocket) and straight shots to sector A, as long as there are no other tactical considerations. Women should shoot primarily towards the pocket. It might also be worth playing more bounce-rotation shots and practicing them in training.

“…Análises táticas geralmente fornecem resumo dos resultados de desempenho (por exemplo, posicionamento de defesa, distribuição de arremessos, etc. ), praticas frequentes no basquete 37,44 e rugby em cadeira de rodas 45,46 e no goalbaal 47,48 . Outro ponto a ser destacado nas análises de desempenho esportivo se concentra na escolha dos jogadores que vão constituir a equipe.…”

ResumoObjetivo: Revisar a produção científica a respeito de modalidades esportivas coletivas para pessoas com deficiência e sugerir direcionamentos para estudos futuros. Métodos: Estudos foram identificados a partir de busca sistemática em três bases de dados. A pesquisa foi limitada para os idiomas inglês e português, e a estudos publicados até janeiro de 2018. Os trabalhos foram sumarizados e analisados em relação a frequência absoluta e relativa em 13 áreas de concentração. Resultados: Foram incluídos no estudo o total 348 trabalhos após exclusão dos estudos duplicados e que não atenderam os critérios de inclusão. Basquete, Rugby em cadeira de rodas, Futebol para Amputados e Goalball foram os esportes coletivos que apresentaram a maior frequência de estudos após síntese qualitativa. Análise de desempenho esportivo, aspectos fisiológicos e psicológicos foram as principais áreas de concentração dos estudos. Conclusão: Concluímos que a literatura é escassa na investigação das modalidades Futebol de cinco, Futebol de sete, Futebol em cadeira de rodas e Handebol em cadeira de rodas. Sugerimos que pesquisadores avancem nos conhecimentos fisiológicos, de desempenho esportivo e de psicologia do esporte em todas modalidades investigadas, mas que também desenvolvam estudos relativos a saúde e qualidade vida, nutrição esportiva, fisioterapia, tecnologia no esporte, teste e avaliações e nos aspectos sociais do esporte adaptado.Palavras-Chave: paradesporto, paralímpico, atividade física adaptada. AbstractObjective: To review the scientific research regarding collective sports modalities for people with disabilities and to suggest directions for future studies. Methods: Studies were identified from a systematic search of three databases. The research was limited to the english and portugueselanguages, and published up to January 2018. The papers were summarized and analyzed in relation to absolute and relative frequency in 13 concentration areas. Results: A total of 348 studies were included in the study after exclusion from the duplicate studies and did not meet the inclusion criteria. Wheelchair basketball, wheelchair rugby, amputee soccer and goalball were the collective sports that presented the highest frequency of studies after qualitative synthesis. Sports performance analysis, physiological and psychological aspects were the main focus areas of the studies. Conclusion: We conclude that the literature is scarce in the investigation of sports Football 5-a-side, Football 7-a-side, power soccer and in wheelchair handball. We suggest that researchers advance their sports performance analysis, physiological, and sports psychology knowledge in all investigated sports, but also development studies related to health and quality of life, sports nutrition, physiotherapy, technology in sports, test and evaluations, and social aspects of sport adapted.
