JIMENEZ-SALAS, J et al. Handball Final 4: analysis of the male and female combinatorial game using polar coordinates. CPD [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.186-202. Epub 12-Mayo-2023. ISSN 1989-5879.
The objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the behaviors shown during the offensive combinatorial game in elite male and female handball at an international level through the analysis of Polar Coordinates. 16 observation sessions were carried out on the 8 teams, 4 male and 4 female, participants in the Final Four of the Handball Champions League in 2019, for this an observation tool was used that was designed ad hoc and that was formed by 12 criteria and 62 categories. Three focal behaviors were selected for the analysis of Polar Coordinates: simple collective tactical means, the combination of tactical means and transformations with a Nomothetic/Punctual/Multidimensional observational design. The results showed differences in the flow of behaviors between the female and male game. It stands out that in the female category the players achieve imbalance through simple collective tactical means and their combinations. However, in the male category, the imbalance is achieved and even the obtaining of advantageous launch situations through the transformations. The men's game is associated with the combination of tactical means at a disadvantage on the scoreboard, while in the female category it is associated with simple tactical means. Both categories show greater use of simple collective tactical means in the first minutes of play, and combinations of tactical means in the last minutes. The differences suggest intervening in the preparation of both categories with a specific orientation towards improvements in the performance of the offensive collective tactical game through the active contribution of each specific position and the efficient adaptation to changes in the attack systems depending on the needs of the team play.
