Abstract:
Our analysis of literary sources has given rise to doubts about the truth of the widely held ideas in the sports and pedagogical community about the need for the periodization theory-dictated "basic" development of "general physical qualities" of young ice hockey players at the stage of sports specialization. The opinions of researchers who point out that non-hockey-specific test exercises do not have the necessary level of information about the level of special training of ice hockey players have been taken into account. Based on the available theoretical and practical material, a hypothesis has been put forward according to which the dominant use of specialized exercises in off-ice training of young ice hockey players, simulating elements of competitive activity in ice hockey, ensures greater efficiency of the training process in comparison with general physical off-ice training. The aim of the study was to compare the efficiency of using general and specialized training tools in off-ice training of young hockey players of the same age group but two different teams, based on the results of on-ice testing conducted at the beginning and the end of the preparatory period. To achieve this goal, the following research tasks were solved: a set of exercises for specialized off-ice training of young ice hockey players was developed; this set of exercises was introduced into the training process of the main team; on-ice tests of the control and main teams was conducted at the beginning and end of the preparatory period. The results of the study allowed us to conclude that the performance of general physical training work by young hockey players during the preparatory period does not ensure the growth of special training level of players. It was concluded that when organizing off-ice training sessions for young ice hockey players and when choosing training tools, one should be guided by the principle of specificity (in relation to the main competitive activity of ice hockey players).
