The role of the rate of simple visual-motor reaction, the discrimination reaction and the choice reaction to the pucks shot by hockey forwards at the age of 12-14 years

Modern hockey makes rather high demands on the development of the athletes’ speed and the speed of decision-making. The study of the reaction development is a priority in assessing the athlete’s being ready to become a part of professional hockey. In this regard, the question about the influence of a simple visual-motor reaction, a discrimination reaction and a choice reaction on the ability of the hockey forwards to make effective throws is really important. The purpose of this work is the ratio of testing indicators and the effectiveness of forwards in hockey (goals), identifying the presence or absence of patterns. Materials and methods – testing was carried out using psychophysiological and psychological diagnostics with the help of special equipment. A total of 80 young hockey players, aged 12 to 14, participated in the study. Research results and discussion. In assessing and understanding how a simple visual-motor reaction, a discrimination reaction and a choice reaction are important for the effectiveness of hockey forwards, we conditionally set points for average performance (goals) based on the studied young hockey players. Conclusion. According to the results of the study, it can be noted that, in general, the speed of a simple visual-motor reaction, a discrimination reaction and a choice reaction is not associated with the ability of the forwards to score goals. Having carried out this study, it can be noted that the measurements made on special equipment haven’t shown the actual indicators except an assessment of the speed of various types of reactions. The use of the obtained data in practice is unlikely.
