Technical-Tactical Behaviors Analysis of Male and Female Judo Cadets’ Combats

Abstract

This brief research report showed technical-tactical behaviors of male and female judo cadets during combats, comparing the frequency and time of judo combat actions, techniques and penalties. The data was composed for 3,240 sequential technical-tactical behavior analysis from 108 female and 300 male cadet combats recorded of public judo championships. Combat, standing combat moments, approach action, gripping action, attack, groundwork actions and pause moment were observed and determinant technical-tactical behaviors (frequencies of actions, penalties and type of attacks) analysis were done with FRAMI software, followed by Mann-Whitney and Student's t-test, p ≤ 0.05. Our main results indicated that male cadets with 58.66s ± 50.26s demonstrated longer gripping action than female with 38.44s ± 30.44s, as standing combat (tachi-waza) had differences between male with 96.8s ± 72s and female athletes with 75.85s ± 56.97s. Moreover, male cadets had higher sacrifice techniques (sutemi-waza) actions than female athletes. This information could be used to a best performance associated with "psyching-up" as much as it could be used on physical training and technical-tactical ability of female and male cadets.

Characteristics of Technical and Tactical Preparation of Elite Judokas during the World Championships and Olympic Games

“…Therefore, preparation indicators did not change, whereas shortening of the fight time caused the necessity of changing the physiological profile of the female players. The necessity to modify the method of endurance training caused by this fact could have influenced the profile of technical and tactical preparation [15].…”

“…Currently, there are many up-to-date developments that analyze judo bouts in terms of technical and tactical actions [10,[13][14][15][16]. Gutiérrez-Santiago et al [7] analyzed the fights during the World Championships in judo in 2017 in the 66-73 kg weight division.…”

Physical Fitness and the Level of Technical and Tactical Training of Kickboxers

“…Technical and tactical analyses are common methods used in modifying the process of sport training in a group of martial arts and combat sports coaches and competitors. Interesting articles on this topic can be found in judo [ 24 , 25 , 26 ].…”

“…The results of the analysis of selected literature show that studies are concerned with success prognosis based on morpho-functional, physiological, biomechanical and psychosomatic indices [ 24 ], as well as assessment of capacity during fights [ 25 , 26 ]. Other studies were concerned with movement analysis [ 8 ], traumas and starting consequences [ 5 , 16 ].…”

Improving on Half-Lightweight Male Judokas' High Performance by the Application of the Analytic Network Process

“…Furthermore, anxiety control and emotional intelligence are necessary not only on the day of competition but also in the preparation period, when athletes have to manage their weight and deal with a stressful training program (Merino Fernández et al, 2020). Previous studies have to some extent identified the variables that can be considered as KPIs for judo performance; these including weight management (Escobar-Molina et al, 2016;Thomson et al, 2017;Gallot et al, 2019), level of strength (Ache Dias et al, 2012;Franchini et al, 2019), technical and tactical skills (Weigelt et al, 2011;Bocioaca, 2014;Miarka et al, 2020), level and direction of motivation (Gillet et al, 2010;Boughattas et al, 2017;Oliveira et al, 2018), nutrition (Artioli et al, 2019), capacity for focus and attention (Yahija, 2010;Jacini et al, 2012;Mihailescu and Sava, 2013;Toh et al, 2018;Campos Faro et al, 2020), sleep habits (Chtourou et al, 2018;Knowles et al, 2018;Vlahoyiannis et al, in press), speed (Almansba et al, 2008), and level of conditioning capacity (aerobic and anaerobic; Detanico et al, 2012;Franchini et al, 2014Franchini et al, , 2016Hesari et al, 2014;Anthierens et al, 2016).…”
