THE INFLUENCE OF THE TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL SKILL INDICATORS OF HIGHLY QUALIFIED ATHLETES ON THE RESULT OF OVERCOMING THE DISTANCES OF 50, 100 AND 200 METERS BY BUTTERFLY STROKE

Abstract

The work relevance. The extremely high level of the sports industry development necessitates the search for new influence levers on the modern athletes results. One of the promising areas of scientific research in sports swimming is the in-depth study of technical and tactical skill indicators, which are a reflection of the athlete's ability to maximally realize all aspects of preparedness in the competitive battle conditions. The study aim –the determination of influence degree of the technical and tactical skill indicators of highly qualified athletes on the result of overcoming the distances of 50, 100 and 200 meters by butterfly stroke. The material and methods: analysis and generalization of literary sources, video recording, timing, mathematical statistics methods. High-class athletes who were finalists of the Championships and Cups of Ukraine at the different lengths distances by the butterfly stroke took part in the study. The results. It was determined that the most significant technical and tactical indicators at the distance of 50 meters by butterfly stroke are the speed in the section «25 m – 35 m» and pace of stroke movements in the area «45 m – 50 m». At the 100 meters distance the parameters of the speed and «step» of stroke cycle in the segment «85 m – 95 m», pace in the sections «35 m – 45 m» and «45 m – 50 m» are closely related to the result. The result at the 200 meters distance is influenced by the speed indicators in the areas «45 m – 50 m», «50 m – emergence», «150 m – emergence» and «185 m – 195 m», stroke length in the segments «145 m – 150 m» and «165 m – 175 m», pace on the sections «45 m – 50 m» and «185 m – 195 m»". The conclusions. The influence degree of technical and tactical skills indicators of highly qualified athletes who specialize in butterfly swimming differs depending on the competitive distance length. Purposeful influence on the most significant technical and tactical indicators will allow to improve the competitive activity of athletes of various distance specializations in the specified swimming stroke.
