In 2011-2012, the Spanish Soccer Federation changed the format of junior championship matches played between regional-level teams in Spain from a 7-a-side to an 8-a-side format. Soon afterwards, the regional federations followed in their footsteps by adapting their competition formats accordingly. Taking the use of space as a functional indicator of the quality of play in U-10 soccer, the present study examines the relative suitability of the 7-a-side and 8-a-side formats for developing the skills of young players. Of 9 hypothesis contrasts relating to the zone in which a move initiated in the attacking team’s goal area ended, only one was significant (p < .05) in the standard analysis, even though the contingency tables suggested there were genuine differences between the two formats studied. Consequently, the statistical software program GPower was used to determine the minimum sample size necessary to detect significant differences for four levels of statistical power: 95%, 90%, 85%, and 80%. Given the difficulty of organizing a new round of data collection, we simulated an increase in sample size while maintaining the characteristics of the original data (frequencies, variability, and distribution). The results obtained through the original sampling were then compared with those from the simulation.
Descripción:
No decorrer da época desportiva 2011-2012, a Federação Espanhola de Futebol alterou o formato das
competições de jovens nos jogos realizados entre as equipas representativas das diferentes regiões
autónomas de Espanha. No sentido de respeitar as normas instituídas, as federações regionais adaptaram
as respetivas competições. Considerando-se a utilização do espaço como um indicador funcional da
qualidade de jogo neste nível, o presente estudo examina a adequação dos dois formatos: Futebol-7 e
Futebol-8. De entre as nove hipóteses encontradas acerca da relação entre a zona em que a situação de jogo
se iniciava e que, posteriormente, terminava, apenas uma hipótese se mostrou significativa (p < .05). Não
obstante, as tabelas de contingência evidenciaram diferenças significativas entre a situação de jogo reduzido
de 7x7 e 8x8. Utilizou-se o software estatístico G-Power para determinar o tamanho mínimo da amostra
que, provavelmente, permitiria encontrar diferenças significativas nos diferentes níveis de potência do teste:
95%, 90%, 85%, e 80%. Dadas as dificuldades em organizar uma nova recolha de dados, simulou-se o
aumento do tamanho da amostra respeitando-se as características dos dados originais, nomeadamente os
valores encontrados, a variabilidade e a distribuição. Os resultados obtidos através da amostra original
foram, posteriormente, comparados com os resultados da simulação.
