Subjects: HOCKEY goalkeepers, SKATING rinks, BODY mass index, SKINFOLD thickness, FAT
Abstract (English): Objective: Evaluate the anthropometric characteristics of male rink hockey goalkeepers, and to compare the variation according to their competitive level (international vs. non-international). Methods: Body mass, stature, sitting height, arm span, waist and hip circumferences and four skinfold measurements (triceps, medial calf, subscapular and supraspinale) of international (n = 12) and non-international (n = 23) goalkeepers were taken. Body mass index (BMI, weight/height 2 ), the sum of four skinfolds, the sitting height/stature ratio, waist/hip ratio and the relative arm span were also calculated. Results: International rink hockey goalkeepers have lower values of subcutaneous adiposity for the sum of the four skinfolds (P = 0.042; d = 0.76) particularly in the triceps (P = 0.016; d = 0.87) and are taller than non-international goalkeepers (+3.8 cm [2.2%]; 180.5 ± 7.0 vs. 176.6 ± 4.8 cm; t = 1.920; P = 0.064; d = 0.65). Conclusion: The findings could indicate that stature and body fat may have important implications for scouts regarding the selection process and coaches that work with players on developing performance. Future research should investigate the extent to which different anthropometric measures influence performance in rink hockey goalkeepers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Objetivo: Evaluar las características antropométricas de los porteros masculinos de hockey sobre patines y comparar las diferencias según su nivel competitivo (internacional vs. no internacional). Métodos: Se midieron la masa corporal, altura, altura sentada, envergadura, circunferencia de cintura y cadera y cuatro pliegues cutáneos (tríceps, pantorrilla medial, subescapular y suprailíaco) de porteros internacionales (n = 12) y no internacionales (n = 23). También se calculó el índice de masa corporal (IMC, peso/altura² ), la suma de los cuatro pliegues de grasa subcutánea, la relación altura/sentado, la relación cintura/cadera y la envergadura relativa. Resultados: Los porteros de hockey sobre patines internacionales presentan valores más bajos de adiposidad subcutánea para la suma de los cuatro pliegues de grasa subcutánea (P = 0.042; d = 0.76) principalmente en el pliegue del tríceps (P = 0.016; d = 0.87) y son más altos do que los porteros no internacionales (+3.8 cm [2.2%]; 180.5 ± 7.0 vs. 176.6 ± 4.8 cm; t = 1.920; P = 0.064; d = 0.65). Conclusión: Los resultados de este estudio pueden indicar que la altura y la grasa corporal pueden tener implicaciones importantes con respecto al proceso de selección tanto para los scouts como para los entrenadores que trabajan con los jugadores en el desarrollo del rendimiento. Estudios futuros deberían centrarse en investigar hasta qué punto las diferentes medidas antropométricas influyen en el rendimiento de los porteros de hockey sobre patines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese): Objetivo: Avaliar as características antropométricas dos guarda-redes masculinos de hóquei em patins e comparar as diferenças de acordo com seu nível competitivo (internacional vs. não internacional). Métodos: Foi medida a Massa corporal, estatura, altura sentada, envergadura, circunferências da cintura e quadril e quatro pregas de gordura subcutânea (trícipital, geminal média, subescapular e suprailíaca) de guarda-redes internacionais (n = 12) e não internacionais (n = 23). O índice de massa corporal (IMC, peso/altura² ), a soma das quatro pregas de gordura subcutânea, a relação altura/estatura sentada, relação cintura/quadril e a envergadura relativa também foram calculadas. Resultados: Os guarda-redes internacionais apresentam menores valores de adiposidade subcutânea para a soma das quatro pregas de gordura subcutânea (P = 0,042; d = 0,76) principalmente na prega tricípital (P = 0.016; d = 0.87) e são mais altos do que os guarda-redes não internacionais (+3.8 cm [2.2%]; 180.5 ± 7.0 vs. 176.6 ± 4.8 cm; t = 1.920; P = 0.064; d = 0. 65). Conclusão: Os resultados deste estudo podem indicar que estatura e a gordura corporal podem ter implicações importantes no que diz respeito ao processo de seleção tanto para olheiros e treinadores que trabalham com jogadores no desenvolvimento de desempenho. Futuros estudos devem centrar-se em investigar até que ponto diferentes medidas antropométricas influenciam o desempenho dos guarda-redes de hóquei em patins. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
