Methods for young hockey players speed abilities development at the primary specialization stage in one-year training cycle
The article presents the methodology for developing speed abilities of young hockey players at the stage of primary specialization. The main characteristics of the training process in a one-year training cycle are determined, improving microcycles and sets of high-speed exercises are developed. A pedagogical experiment was conducted with participation of 40 young hockey players aged 11-12 years old who are engaged in the junior sport school of Olympic reserve "Mechel". To verify the effectiveness of the author's methodology, control tests were used. The reliability of the changes was determined by using the methods of mathematical statistics. Analysis of the dynamics results in the control tests showed that implementation of the experimental method of training young hockey players in the annual cycle of training contributed to development of speed abilities.
