Functionality monitoring in youth sledge hockey

Objective of the study was to analyze benefits of the key physical fitness and functionality tests applicable in the youth sledge hockey sport. Methods and structure of the study. Modern sledge hockey gives a special priority to many physical qualities including speed (response rates, motor speed, startup movement speed, specific action speed etc.), dexterity (movement coordination, muscular sensations, spatial orientation, relaxation skills), endurance (special and speed keeping), plus explosive strength and active flexibility. It should be emphasized that the health tests and training progress test systems should produce extensive progress stage-specific physical fitness and functionality test data arrays for analyses. Results and conclusions. All stress tests in sledge hockey may be run using a Firstbeat (or similar) system with a special priority to the cardiovascular system performance tests to produce real-time heart rate variability data under stress read by a chest-fixed sensor. Such a test system produces individual test profiles for every player. The sledge hockey player's functionality and physical fitness should be high enough to cope with the growing training and competitive work pressures and stressors. Practical experience and research in youth sledge hockey give reasons to recommended that the coaches and families should have permissions from the relevant regulatory and health agencies for the sledge hockey trainings and competitions. The heath tests and training progress tests and analyses in every stage of the training process should be comprehensive enough to ensure that the individual physical fitness and functionality make it possible for the player to safely cope with the physical stressors of the sledge hockey sport.
