The purpose of this study was to compare the external load, internal load, and technical efficacy between the first and the second matches (M1 and M2) occurring in congested fixtures (two matches in two days) using the number of sets as a moderating factor. An observational analytic research design was adopted. Data from official volleyball matches were collected during the first competitive period of the championship, comprising 14 competitive games within 10 weeks. Ten male elite volleyball athletes (age: 21.7 ± 4.19 years of age; experience: 6.2 ± 3.8 years; body mass: 85.7 ± 8.69 kg; height: 192.4 ± 6.25 cm; BMI: 23.1 ± 1.40 kg/m2) participated in this study. Players were monitored for external load (number of jumps and height of jumps) and internal load (using the rate of perceived exertion—RPE). Additionally, notational analysis collected information about attack efficacy and receptions made during matches. The mixed ANOVA revealed no significant interaction between time (M1 vs. M2) and number of sets for number of jumps per minute (p = 0.235; ηp2 = 0.114), mean jump height (p = 0.076; ηp2 = 0.193), RPE (p = 0.261; ηp2 = 0.106), attack efficacy (p = 0.346; ηp2 = 0.085), Positive reception (p = 0.980; ηp2 = 0.002) and Perfect reception (p = 0.762; ηp2 = 0.022). In conclusion, congested fixtures do not seem to affect the performance of volleyball players negatively.

“…Studies were also identified by countries in which the studies were carried out-(1) Portugal (63.16%), (2) Spain (26.32%), (3) Germany (5.26%), and (4) Italy (5.26%). The analyzed studies bring up information related to the characterization of specific competition level such as competitive demands of elite male rink-hockey and the influence of workload and wellbeing on athletes [1,20] or functional strength and shooting biomechanics analysis [8,20,21]. An insight of body composition, cardiac indicators, and peak oxygen uptake are described in adolescent players [22][23][24].…”

“…Also, it was possible to classify other studies in two sub-categories that allow for the characterization of physiological demands of rinkhockey-cardiorespiratory adaptations, specific training, and workload (see Table 1). The analyzed studies bring up information related to the characterization of specific competition level such as competitive demands of elite male rink-hockey and the influence of workload and well-being on athletes [1,20] or functional strength and shooting biomechanics analysis [8,20,21].

“…On the other hand, rink-hockey researchers developed an investigation with 10 elite players which were tested on (1) time to exhaustion, maximum oxygen uptake, and running economy; With the main goal of understanding the relationship between core strength and key variables of performance, athletes were also tested for (6) ventral, lateral-left, lateral-right, and dorsal core strength endurance using concentric-eccentric muscle tests [2]. Season training periodization is a complex process, mainly considering the implications of different training loads [20]. Therefore, variation of season workload and well-being among 10 professional rink-hockey players was assessed to understand the implications of load manipulation on regular (one match) and congested (two matches) weeks [20] (see Table 1).…”

The aim of this study was to review the evolutionary tendencies of research regarding to the study of male Rink-Hockey players´ and game performance. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases according to PRISMA method. The initial search identified 815 titles, resulting in 19 articles being included within the review. Original papers (English language) contained relevant data regarding rink hockey players’ performance or morphological/physiological demands, anthropometry/body composition characteristics were eligible. Studies were classified into categories: (1) Physiological Demands, (2) Anthropometry and Body Composition, (3) Game Characterization/Patterns, (4) Injuries. Results indicated that Rink hockey requires high intensity effort which demands both short and long duration efforts requirements from players. Body composition analysis shows to be an important monitoring tool which complements the understanding of the athlete’s cardiac adaptation. Game patterns shows a combination of specific game momentums with different outcomes according to the game zone. The intense short-term movements, collision and contact between players, in addition to the weight and speed of the hard ball and the stick, can considerably increase the risk of moderate and severe injuries. Lack of literature in Rink-Hockey is remarkable, and research is mainly focused on children and adolescents’ players. Furthermore, the existing research with adult elite athletes was assessed with a small sample size.
