Sports selection method of sambo fighters at the stage of instruction and training

Abstract

Actuality. The founders of the theory and practice of physical education and sport considered the system of training young athletes as a priority basis for the theory and practice of sport, but the selection in sport - as an essential condition for sports activity. The increased interest in the selection and preparation of sports substitutions is determined by the needs of the multi-annual instruction and training process. So far, coaches, physical education and sports specialists have raised important issues related to improving the selection system, improving its quality and effectiveness. This also refers to the lack of new methodological approaches in research, and to the need to consider acceleration at the contemporary stage. It is by no means the complete list of difficulties which, currently, remain unresolved in the theory and practice of sport, despite the fact that in the scientific-practical literature the various aspects of sports selection are broadly reflected. Currently, one of the main tasks of science is the selection of talented athletes. This is also true for wrestling. That is why the factors mentioned above did not avoid either the sambo fight, a young sport, which has an accelerated development. And taking into account that, in every field of knowledge, there is practically a complete review of scientific information every 5-10 years, the analysis of the old problem from a new perspective becomes current. Thus, we intend to regulate the sambo fighters’ selection procedure at the instruction and training stage by applying appropriate methodologies to determine the qualities required in their sporting activity. The aim of the research is to improve the sambo fighter selection methodology at the instruction and training stage in order to optimize the instruction and training process of athletes. The analysis of specialized scientific-methodical literature, the practical experience in the selection of young sambo fighters and the results of our own researches has shown that the existing system of sports selection of the sambo fighters at the instruction and training stage is not sufficiently effective. It does not meet the requirements of objectivity and is not complex, but is based on the empirical experience of coaches. This implies the imperative need for the modernization and scientific argumentation of the complex assessment of the essential characteristics of the level of training at this important stage of multi-annual training.
