Core Stability Training and Jump Performance in Young Basketball Players
No full textThe strength core is an important prerequisite to perform sport skills and to perform some everyday activities such as walking,
climbing stairs, postural control. The literature, so far, it is mainly dedicated to the description of the effectiveness of core stability
exercises in athletes or insedentary adults, with lumbar pain. The study describes the effects of an integrative training of core stabilityon
jump performance in young basketball players. In total 44 young basketball players (19 female gender, 25 male gender, age7.07 ±
0.3yrs, height 114, 4 ± 4.3 cm weight 26.8 ± 2.7 kg) participated and were assigned to either an intervention(EG) or a control group
(CG). The training program has had a duration of 4 weeks (8 sessions twice a week, for one hour); EG, besides the sports-specific
exercises and introduced in the warm up 4 core exercises stability. The strength was evaluated through monopodalic and vertical jump.
The results revealed that the 4-week core stability training program improved the left(p<0.05) and right (p<0.001), hop test, the 6m
timed hop left and right test (p <0.0005).The CG has obtained statistically significant benefits only in the bipodalic vertical jump
(p<0.01). The study confirms the need to introduce integrative core stability exercise, as well as the literature suggests. The study
highlighted the functional relationships between core stability and jump performance in prepubertal basketball players

Small-Sided Games: Analysis of the Internal Load and Technical Skills in Young Soccer Players
No full textThe Small-Sided Games are very widespread football training exercises because are very functional to improve both the
physical condition and the technical abilities. The aim of the study is to evaluate and compare the internal load of the young football
player using the heart rate (HR) and the perceived exertion (RPE) and to describe the number and frequency of some technical skills in
3vs3, 4vs4 and 5vs5. The study shows that the size with small number of players allows to have a grater internal load while the format
with large number of participants makes it possible to achieve a higher number and frequency of technical skills. The 3vs3 is more
effective for a high-intensity aerobic training while the 5vs5 is more effective to train technical skills

Full text linkThe study purpose.The Small-side games (SSG) are high intensity drills very popular in soccer training. The
knowledge of the acute effects of the exercises that make up the training session is very relevant especially to reduce
youth soccer injury risk. This study aim to assessment the acute effects of SSG on hamstring eccentric strength and to
know the lower limb strength asymmetries (LLSA) in young soccer players.
Materials and methods. The sample is composed of male young soccer players Under 17 (n = 24, 16.6 ± 0.5 years,
168.8 ± 4.6 cm, 58.2 ± 3.5 kg). Before and after SSG (4vs4, 3×4 min, 3min recovery, no goalkeepers) the hamstring
eccentric strength and the lower limb eccentric strength asymmetry were evaluated used a specific dynamometer
(N3 Easytech, Italy) and relative software. Every young soccer player performed a single repetition of the Nordic
hamstring exercise with dynamometer; after about 2 minutes, instead, they performed 5 repetitions of the same
exercise, without interruption. For both assessments, were detected the eccentric strength and the LLSA.
Results. The hamstring eccentric strength assessment show substantial and statistically significant differences in
the assessment in comparison pre-post values. A significant reduction was observed for eccentric strength peak
(p < 0.018 and p < 0.014 for right/left limb), for eccentric average strength (p < 0.017 and p < 0.006 for right/left
limb). The eccentric peak strength asymmetry value and the average strength asymmetry value revealed a significant
increase (p < 0.0001).
Conclusions. The reduction of strength after SSG requires careful consideration of the exercises order in the training
session. The practitioners can plan training sessions and apply SSGs more effectively, with more attention to the
effects on hamstrings
