Power moves are the rule in hockey. Power wrestling in hockey Power techniques in hockey training

The acceleration of a hockey player's head when performing power moves was studied using accelerometric sensors. On ice, the head acceleration reaches its highest values ​​(26.8±7.6 g) when performing the “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement” technique. At the same time, the maximum acceleration (42.3 g) was recorded in the attempt in which the push occurred primarily in the shoulder rather than in the back. Off the ice, the head acceleration reaches its highest values ​​(27.8±11.1 g) when performing the prohibited technique “push to the chest with a stick.” In this case, the maximum acceleration (50.4 g) was recorded in the attempt in which the player fell on his back.

In modern ice hockey, power techniques are one of the main elements of counteracting the enemy. However, along with other gaming activities, they often lead to injuries. One of the causes of injuries is excessive acceleration of the athlete’s head, which is especially important to consider in youth hockey. In this regard, in this work, we analyzed the acceleration values ​​of an athlete’s head when performing power techniques widely used by hockey players: “shoulder-to-shoulder push during parallel movement” and “shoulder-to-shoulder push during counter movement.” In addition, techniques prohibited by the rules, but also used in some cases, are considered: “push with a stick in the back” and “push with a stick in the chest.” Head accelerations were determined using a special accelerometer device, which included a three-coordinate sensor mounted on the hockey player’s helmet. As a result of measuring the head accelerations of two middle-aged youth hockey players when performing power techniques during training off the ice and on the ice, it was found that the highest values ​​(27.8 ± 11.1 g) of the head acceleration reached when performing the prohibited technique “stick push” off the ice in the chest." In this case, the maximum acceleration (50.4 g) was recorded in the attempt in which the player fell on his back. The player's defensive actions in other attempts resulted in significantly lower acceleration values. On ice, the head acceleration reaches its highest values ​​(26.8±7.6 g) when performing the “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement” technique. At the same time, the maximum acceleration (42.3 g) was recorded in the attempt in which the push occurred primarily in the shoulder rather than in the back. Thus, the formation of technically correct defensive actions of a player both during off-ice and on-ice training can reduce the risk of head injuries.

Introduction

Ice hockey is one of the most dangerous sports. According to statistics, ice hockey ranks fourth in the frequency of injuries after boxing, rugby and snowboarding. It has been shown that 23.9% of all hockey injuries are caused by player contact. American scientists indicate that 44% of injuries occur due to collisions (including contacts with the board, with players, with ice), and they rank first among all causes of injury.

According to studies, the impact of a standard hockey puck weighing 160 g flying at a speed of 33 m/s on a hockey helmet causes an acceleration of the athlete’s head equal to 110.2 ± 7.4 g. To reduce the number of possible injuries, hockey players use special equipment. The acceleration of an athlete's head can also reach quite large values ​​when performing various power techniques, that is, techniques of playing with the torso, legs and shoulders, accompanied by stopping, pushing and pressing the enemy player. However, at present, both in our country and abroad, there are no studies devoted to the study of athlete’s head accelerations when performing power moves in hockey. These studies are especially relevant in children's and youth hockey, since, despite the ban on the use of power techniques by players under 11 years of age, in some cases they are used by young men of this age and even more widely by young men of middle and older age. According to a recent national American study, concussions related to forceful movements are more common among people under 18 years of age (9% of all injuries) than among older athletes (3.7% of all injuries). . One reason for this is that the brains of children and adolescents are more susceptible to traumatic brain injury than the adult brain, even at lower impact forces.

Power techniques are used by hockey players in competitions and training on the ice, and are also practiced off the ice, which is especially typical for young athletes. During the game, there are also techniques prohibited by the rules, for which the player receives a fine. In this regard, the following objectives were set in this study:

1. To estimate the acceleration values ​​of an athlete's head when performing frequently used power techniques.
2. Compare the values ​​of the resulting acceleration of the athlete’s head when performing power techniques off the ice (in the gym) and on the ice.
3. Compare the values ​​of the resulting acceleration of the athlete’s head when performing permitted and prohibited power techniques.

Materials and research methods

Two male hockey players took part in the study, the data of which is presented in Table 1.

Table 1 Data of athletes participating in the experiments

To determine the acceleration of the athlete's head, a special accelerometric device was used, which allows for remote measurements in real time, display and save the results on a computer (Telecom-Diagnostics LLC, St. Petersburg). The device includes an accelerometric sensor based on a three-coordinate MEMS accelerometer (Fig. 1), a standard radio transmitting module Bluetoothh and receiver.

The accelerometer sensor operates in two ranges: 0-2 g and 0-16 g. The digitizing frequency is up to 1000 Hz, the sensor size is 55x55x25 mm, the weight is 50 g. The sensor is attached to the helmet of the player against whom the force is applied. The direction of the axis corresponds to the movements of the athlete’s head in the frontal plane, the axis – in the sagittal plane, the axis – in the transversal plane (Fig. 1).

Fig.1. Accelerometer sensor (a) and its mount on a hockey player’s helmet (b)

The resulting acceleration of the athlete's head was determined by the formula:

Together with the recording of accelerograms, video recording of the athletes’ movements was carried out at a frequency of 30 frames/s. Statistical processing of the results was carried out in the package StatgraphicsCenturion.

When studying power techniques off the ice, the subjects were in full hockey equipment with sticks, but without skates. Gymnastic mats were used to prevent injuries. The study of power techniques on ice took place under normal conditions. Four commonly used power moves in hockey were performed both off and on the ice:

1. Push shoulder to shoulder with parallel movement.
2. Push with a club in the back.
3. A push into the chest with a club.
4. Push shoulder to shoulder during oncoming traffic.

The first and fourth techniques were performed within the rules permitted by the International Ice Hockey Federation ( InternationalIceHockeyFederation,IIHF). In this case, the contact occurred without the use of an elbow, fist, stick or knee. The second and third techniques are illegal and will result in disciplinary penalties during the match. When performing them, there is a high probability of hitting your head on the ice or board during a fall, which can lead to head injuries.

Results and its discussion

In Fig. Figure 2 shows the acceleration of the athlete's head when performing power moves off the ice. One of three attempts to perform each technique is presented, in which the value of the resulting head acceleration is maximum. Table 2 shows the maximum and average acceleration values ​​for all attempts.

Table 2 Acceleration of the athlete’s head when performing power moves off the ice (g)

As can be seen in Fig. 2, when performing the off-ice power technique “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement,” the maximum acceleration of the head is 32.9 g. This acceleration corresponds to the moment of the push. The second peak - 13.1 g occurs when the hand touches the mat and then the shoulder and head during the fall. The acceleration values ​​in the second and third attempts are significantly lower (Table 2). This is due to the lower force of the push and the fact that after the push the athlete lands more elastically on the mats on both arms and legs.

The maximum acceleration of the head when performing the power technique “push with a club in the back” reaches 33.8 g. It corresponds to the head hitting the mat after falling to the knees and hands. In the second attempt, the fall also occurs on the knees and hands, and in the third, on the side, but in both cases without hitting the head on the mat, which leads to lower acceleration values.

The power technique “pushing the club into the chest” is accompanied by the highest maximum head acceleration of 50.4 g. Such a high acceleration value is caused by the fact that in the first attempt the athlete, after pushing with the club, falls flat on his back. In the other two attempts, falling backwards to the side and rolling onto your back occurs less harshly.

The maximum acceleration of the head when performing the power technique “shoulder-to-shoulder push with oncoming movement” is 18.6 g at the moment of the push and is significantly lower in comparison with other techniques. All three attempts are approximately the same in terms of execution technique and differ mainly in the strength of the push, which is the largest in the third attempt.

A comparison of all the considered power techniques shows that the highest average value of head acceleration when performing them off the ice, 27.8 ± 11.1 g, is observed for the “push the stick to the chest” technique (Table 2). It is approximately 1.7 times higher than similar values ​​for other techniques. It is characteristic that this technique is prohibited and the high values ​​of head acceleration obtained even when performing the technique off the ice confirm its injury risk. The average values ​​of head acceleration when performing other techniques differ little.

In Fig. Figure 3 shows the acceleration of an athlete’s head when performing power moves on ice. As in the previous case, one of three attempts to perform each technique is presented, in which the value of the resulting head acceleration is maximum. Table 3 shows the maximum and average acceleration values ​​for all attempts.

Table 3 Acceleration of an athlete’s head when performing power techniques on ice (g)

As can be seen in Fig. 3, when performing a power move on ice “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement,” the maximum acceleration of the head is 42.3 g and occurs at the moment of the push. It is characteristic that the push is made primarily to the shoulder, and not to the back. The acceleration values ​​in other attempts (Table 3) are lower due to the fact that the player against whom the technique is performed meets the attacking player less harshly with the body moving to the side.

The power technique “push with a stick in the back” is accompanied by the athlete falling onto the ice on his knees and hands, which leads to a maximum acceleration of the head of 10.5 g. In the other two attempts, the fall does not occur and the acceleration value is several times smaller.

When performing a forceful "chest push" technique, the first peak acceleration of 17.3 g occurs at the moment of the chest push, and the maximum head acceleration of 18.6 g occurs directly behind it when the club hits the helmet mask. A fall after a push to the knees and hands causes an acceleration of 9.3 g. In other attempts, with a lower push force, greater acceleration is observed not during the push itself, but during the fall.

The power technique “shoulder-to-shoulder push in oncoming movement” is distinguished by the fact that when pushing, an acceleration of 10.9 g develops, and when falling and hitting the head on the ice, the maximum acceleration is 23.5 g. In the second and third attempts, when falling, the head did not hit the ice and the acceleration values ​​were correspondingly lower.

In contrast to performing power techniques off the ice, on the ice the highest average value of head acceleration of 26.8 ± 7.6 g is observed for the technique “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement” (Table 3). This is explained by the fact that the speed of hockey players on the ice and the impact force are significantly higher than off the ice. The “push with a stick to the chest” technique, when performed off the ice, a high average value of head acceleration is noted, on the ice leads to a lower acceleration of 14.5 ± 2.4 g. It can be assumed that by training off the ice and knowing that a fall will occur on a soft surface, athletes are less concerned about preventing falls and performing them is less traumatic. The same applies to the “push to the chest” technique. The average values ​​of head acceleration when performing the “shoulder-to-shoulder push with oncoming movement” technique off the ice and on the ice are comparable.

Regarding the maximum recorded head acceleration values ​​of 50.4 g and 42.3 g, it should be noted that they are close to those that can lead to loss of stability or even knockout in boxing, that is, they are quite traumatic. At the same time, it must be taken into account that the hockey helmet on which the accelerometric sensor is mounted has damping pads, and therefore the measured acceleration, in particular when the head hits the ice or the mat during a fall, may differ slightly from the actual acceleration of the athlete’s head .

Conclusion

Measuring the acceleration of an athlete's head using a special accelerometric device showed that when performing power techniques used in ice hockey, sufficiently large accelerations develop that can cause injuries, in particular, concussions. High acceleration values ​​are observed both when studying and practicing power techniques off the ice and on the ice. Off the ice, the highest average value of head acceleration is observed when performing the prohibited technique “push with a stick to the chest”, and on the ice - the permitted technique “shoulder-to-shoulder push with parallel movement.” Off the ice, large accelerations are associated mainly with the fall of a player, and on the ice - with the collision of players. The correct technique of a player’s movements when performing power moves against him can significantly reduce acceleration and thereby prevent head injuries, which is especially important for young hockey players.

ATHLETE’S HEAD ACCELERATION WHILE PERFORMING CHECKING IN THE ICE HOCKEY

A.V. Samsonova, L.V. Mikhno, L.L. Tsipin, G. A. Samsonov, I.A. Chichelov
(St. Petersburg, Russia)

Checking is one of the main ways of countering an opponent in the modern ice hockey. Howewer, just like other game actions, they frequently lead to injuries. Excessive head acceleration is one of the traumatic causes and is especially important to account in the minor and junior hockey. Therefore, this article concerns the analysis of the head acceleration values ​​while preforming widely used checking moves – the shoulder checking and the body checking. Moreover, an illegal checking (a cross-checking from the front and from the back), which is used in some situations, was also studied. Head accelerations were measured with the unique acceleration measurement system including the 3-axis accelerometer attached to the helmet. Measuring the head acceleration of two junior hockey players during the on-ice and off-ice training has shown that the head acceleration reaches its maximum values ​​(27.8±11.1 g) while performing the front cross-checking off-ice. Howewer, the maximum acceleration value (50.4 g) was recorded in an attempt where a player had fallen on a back. Player’s defensive actions in the rest of the attempts resulted in a significantly smaller acceleration values. On-ice head acceleration reaches maximum values ​​(26.8±7.6 g) while preforming the body checking, and the maximum acceleration value (42.3 g) was recorded in an attempt where the push occurred on a shoulder and not on a back. Therefore, development of the technically correct defensive player actions on-ice and off-ice allows lowering the head injury risks.

Powerful techniques in hockey are a very important element of this sport, because their correct and effective use allows not only to take the puck from the opponent, but also to turn off the opposing team’s hockey player from the game for some time.
However, a forceful technique must be used correctly so that it is carried out without any violations, for which various types of fines can be imposed on the hockey player by the refereeing team.
Much attention is paid to this element of the game, and teams practice power techniques in different areas of the hockey rink during the training process.

The main goal of using a power move is to take the puck away from a player on the opposing team. During the game, you can often see how a player holding the puck is “slammed” to the boards, and as a result, the projectile is taken away from him, but there are also more spectacular cases when a hockey player of the defending team performs a power move somewhere in the center of the ice, which significantly increases interest fans in the stands for the game.

To carry out a power move, the player needs to fully calculate how it will be performed, otherwise, if the hockey player against whom it is used unravels all the plans, then the one taking the puck can injure himself. Here it is important to group correctly, and determine for yourself whether it will be carried out with the body, shoulder, or hip.

Hockey is a contact sport, and you need to be constantly focused on the court. Events on the ice develop very quickly, and if a player is not ready for contact play, then after performing a power move against him, he may find himself knocked out for some time. There is a lot of exciting things in ice hockey - these are brilliant combinations, and power plays, and saves by goalkeepers, and showdowns in fist fights, as well as beautiful goals, but the game becomes even more spectacular if players often use forceful techniques during the match. hockey.

TOP KHL power moves

Ice Day. We offer a lesson from Vadim Guskov - tackling the puck in hockey. Let's talk about the most effective methods of selection.

Sharply knocking down the opponent's stick

Pavel Datsyuk is a virtuoso in using this technique. To perform this element, you need to get close to your opponent as suddenly as possible. The swinging motion of the club should be sharp and hard. Please note that you should not throw the stick too high - you may hit your opponent in the face.

The most common mistake hockey players make when performing a similar maneuver is covering the opponent's stick with their stick from above. This is ineffective for several reasons:

• The referee has the right to send you off for holding your opponent with a stick.
• By putting pressure on your opponent's stick from above, there is a chance that your opponent will push you and continue the attack.

Sharp bayonet movement

The second effective way to take the puck is when your hook comes into direct contact with your opponent’s hook. When performing this element, the main thing is not to give away your opponent’s intentions with your preliminary actions. When approaching him, it is necessary not to make it clear what type of puck selection you are going to make. Having carefully adjusted, make a sharp movement into the hook of your opponent’s stick. Don't try to swing the club in an arc. The opponent, seeing this, immediately understands your actions and can easily beat you with his stick. Or, by inertia, you will be led forward, and the opponent will continue the attack.

Taking the puck by force

If you play in a league or championship where power moves are allowed, then this puck removal is very effective. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the main goal of a power move is not to injure the opponent, but to separate the player from the puck and, in an ideal situation, turn him off from the game. It is very important that the initial goal is not to choose the body, but the opponent’s hands. This is done so that at the moment of impact the puck remains in front of you, and the opponent remains behind you. If you go at your opponent's body, there is a high probability that you will slide off him and be left behind.

Game Mindset - Pass Interception

When tackling the puck, one of the key techniques in a defensive hockey player’s arsenal is game thinking. Your task is not just to mindlessly rush at the hockey player, but to analyze the position of his body, where his partners are opening and, in accordance with this, choose which technique will be most effective in a game situation.
Sometimes, instead of fighting with force, it is more profitable to intercept a pass, but for this you must clearly see the opponent’s partners, who may be opening up somewhere.

When performing this type of tackling or intercepting a pass, you need to use your actions to force the opponent to make a pass. Rolling back, make several deceptive movements and intercept the pass, and then immediately begin attacking your team.

BODY PLAY

power moves in hockey

Recently, our hockey players, when taking the puck from the opponent, are increasingly using the power play allowed by the rules, or, as it is called, body play. Mastering the techniques of such a game is very important, given that the competition takes place all the time at a very high speed.

Here's a typical example. The attacker, who is excellent at dribbling, entered into single combat with the defender, using a series of deceptive movements to do this. The defender will not always be able to take the puck with his stick from such a technical player. This is where you need to use your body at the decisive moment.

But the enemy is quite strong! In order to skillfully meet him with your chest, shoulder or thigh, you yourself need to be fully prepared for this. Therefore, a hockey player who uses body play must be physically strong, stand firmly on his skates and have quick reactions.

When you lose the puck in the opponent's half of the field, you often have to roll back to get a good view of everything that is happening on the field. The ability to move backwards is an important skill for a defender.

Therefore, I would like to emphasize that a hockey player can acquire all the qualities and skills necessary for power play only through painstaking training.

The striker rushed towards the enemy goal. A defender and a goalkeeper remained in front of him. How should a defender act in this case?

He must try to push the attacker away from the goal to gain time. This gain would allow the partners to move closer to the place of struggle. But the attacker does not move aside. He tries to get past the defender in the middle of the field. At this time, the defender, moving backwards, must carefully monitor the opponent’s actions and the movements of his body. Now he can pay less attention to the puck. There is no need for him to respond to the false movements of the attacker, whose speed of advance is noticeably reduced. This is where the defender must choose a convenient moment (excluding the possibility of a miss) to expose his chest or shoulder to the enemy. You just need to calculate the movement towards the attacker so that it does not exceed two steps.

Photo 1 shows the body play of the best defender of the country's national team, N. Sologubov. Look at how his inclined body, legs and arms are positioned at the moment of reception. The defenders will now probably take possession of the puck, since the attacker is no longer active, he has lost his orientation and stability.

Very often the attacker manages to move aside at the very last moment. It would seem that he emerged victorious from the fight and the goal was again under threat of a goal. But the defender has the right to use another power technique - playing with the upper thigh. At the same time, the arm moved to the side is pressed to the body and the thigh is sharply exposed towards the enemy (picture 2).

Take a look at pictures 3 and 4. In one case (picture 3), the defender put his knee forward, pressing his hand to it with the palm of his hand, and only then began to take the opponent onto his shoulder. In the second case (picture 4), the defender, without having time to stick out his hip, tripped up his opponent’s leg. You can't do that! This is a clear violation of the rules.

Techniques for power play with the chest or shoulder are approximately the same in their implementation. In both cases, the player takes no more than two counter steps, spreading his legs slightly bent at the knees. His body is tilted slightly forward, his arms are to the side or back.

Receiving the attacker with the upper thigh, the hockey player quickly turns sideways, also spreads his legs wide, tilts his body forward and presses his arm to his body.

Quite often the opponent with the puck moves forward in close proximity to the boards. How does a defender act in such a situation?

A hockey player can use forceful techniques in any game environment, but skillfully, so that they do not turn into rudeness.
