Abstract

<p class="tabulado" align="justify">The study we present here, which concentrates on analysing the efficacy of the verbal behaviour of coaches, aims to define an intervention protocol for volleyball coaches during competition. The research was carried out by means of a questionnaire given to 25 volleyball experts (university volleyball teachers and volleyball coaches with experience at top national level). The variables analysed consist of the study of the content of the information transmitted by the coaches, in accordance with each moment of the game in which communication with the players occurs. As for the results obtained, and taking into account that there are differences between the different moments of the game, it should be stressed that the overall information must be mainly tactical and refer to both the opponents and one&rsquo;s own team in equal measure. It must be positive and should not include more than three pieces of information.<br />KEY WORDS: information to the player, team management, coach training, volleyball.</p>El estudio que presentamos, centrado en el an&aacute;lisis de la eficacia del comportamiento verbal de los entrenadores, pretende definir un protocolo de intervenci&oacute;n de los entrenadores de voleibol durante la competici&oacute;n. La investigaci&oacute;n se ha desarrollado mediante la aplicaci&oacute;n de un cuestionario a 25 expertos en voleibol (profesores de voleibol en la universidad y entrenadores de voleibol con experiencia en el alto nivel nacional). La variable analizada es el contenido de la informaci&oacute;n transmitida por los entrenadores, considerando los distintos momentos del juego en los que el entrenador puede comunicarse con los jugadores. Como s&iacute;ntesis de los resultados obtenidos, y teniendo en cuenta que existen diferencias entre los distintos momentos del encuentro, la informaci&oacute;n deber&iacute;a ser principalmente de tipo t&aacute;ctico y referida a ambos equipos, propio y contrario, en similar cantidad. La informaci&oacute;n debe ser positiva y no incluir m&aacute;s de tres puntos clave de informaci&oacute;n.<br /><p class="tabulado" align="justify">PALABRAS CLAVE: informaci&oacute;n al jugador; direcci&oacute;n de equipo; formaci&oacute;n de entrenadores; voleibol.</p>
