Abstract

This study aimed to perform a notational analysis to examine the technical and tactical aspects of elite male wrestlers participating in the 2021 and 2022 Senior World Wrestling Championships. A total of 598 bout videos were observed and analyzed using the Dartfish Connect Plus 8.0 match analysis program. The analysis process involved four stages: bout analysis preparation, searching and tagging, database creation, and data utilization procedures. Wrestling techniques were categorized into takedowns and throws (standing position) and flips and throws (parterre position). A significant difference was found between attack and counterattack techniques between the 2021 and 2022 World Championships (p 0.05, d = 0.071), while the mean number of wrestling actions (WAmean) was 1.78 and 1.73 (p > 0.05, d = 0.068) for the same periods. In the 2022 World Championship, TPmean was recorded as 5.1 and 4.4 (p > 0.05, d = 0.061), and WAmean as 1.77 and 1.76 (p > 0.05, d = 0.001) for the first and second periods, respectively. The majority of wrestling techniques were performed in the standing position (61.4% in 2021 and 58.6% in 2022). The findings of the present study demonstrated the dynamic and active nature of wrestling in the 2021 and 2022 World Championships. Furthermore, leg attacks, takedowns, push-outs, and gut wrenches were identified as the most valuable techniques in elite freestyle wrestling

Özet

Bu çalışmada, 2021 ve 2022 Büyükler Dünya Güreş Şampiyonaları’nda elit düzeydeki erkek güreşçilerin teknik ve taktiksel yönlerini incelemek için bir notasyon analizi yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Toplamda 598 müsabaka videosu Dartfish Connect Plus 8.0 maç analizi programı kullanılarak incelenmiş ve analiz edilmiştir. Analizler, müsabaka hazırlığı, arama ve etiketleme, veri tabanı oluşturma ve veri kullanımı prosedürlerine göre gerçekleştirilmiştir. Güreş teknikleri, ayakta pozisyonda yapılan teknikler (ayağa dalma ve fırlatmalar) ve parter pozisyonunda yapılan teknikler (çevirmeler ve fırlatmalar) olmak üzere gruplandırılmıştır. 2021 ve 2022 Dünya Şampiyonaları arasında ataklar ve kontra-ataklar açısından 2022 Dünya şampiyonası lehine anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur (p 0.05, d = 0.071) olarak, güreş hareketleri açısından ortalama değerler (GHort) ise 1.78 ve 1.73 (p > 0.05, d = 0.068) olarak belirlenmiştir. 2022 Dünya Şampiyonası’nda ise TPort sırasıyla 5.1 ve 4.4 (p > 0.05, d = 0.061), GHort ise 1.77 ve 1.76 (p > 0.05, d = 0.001) olarak tespit edilmiştir. Güreş tekniklerinin büyük bir çoğunluğunun ayakta pozisyonda uygulandığı görülmüştür (2021 Dünya Şampiyonası %61,4; 2022 Dünya Şampiyonası %58,6). Bu çalışmanın bulguları, 2021 ve 2022 Dünya Şampiyonaları’nda sergilenen güreşlerin aktif bir mücadele yapısına sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Elit serbest stil güreşte en değerli teknikler arasında ayak dalışı, ayakta indirme, dışarı itme ve ters kilit çevirme olduğu görülmüştür.
