The use of outdoor games in the training of young cheerleaders
Abstract
The purpose - to determine the effectiveness of the use of outdoor games for the development of basic physical abilities at the stage of initial training in cheerleading. Material and methods. The study involved 30 girls 7-8 years, engaged in cheerleading at the Children's school of arts №6 (Kharkiv). Research methods: study and analysis of pedagogical and scientific-methodical literature; analysis of the rules and videos of competitions; pedagogical observations; pedagogical experiment; pedagogical control tests (testing); methods of mathematical statistics. Results. As a result of the study, it was found that for successful competitive activity in cheerleading at the initial stage of preparation, it is necessary to evenly develop such physical abilities as flexibility, agility, speed, strength, speed-strength abilities and the ability to rhythmic activity. To optimize the development of these abilities, mobile games were proposed, divided into groups, according to the predominant influence on physical abilities. After that, for three months, these games were introduced in the experimental group during the preparatory and final parts of the classes. Analysis of indicators of physical fitness in the subjects of the experimental group before and after the pedagogical experiment showed significant dynamics towards improvement. Conclusions. Analysis of competitive activity of cheerleaders, the success of which depends on the skills of young athletes to perform a large number of jumps, rotational movements, stants, pyramids and supports, as well as rapid movements, limited area of a certain size, allowed to identify the physical abilities necessary for the effective preparation of athletes in this sport: flexibility, speed, agility, strength and speed-strength abilities and the ability to rhythmic activity. Experimental verification of the effectiveness of the use of gaming tools in the training of young cheerleaders showed that methodically correctly selected outdoor games with their systematic introduction into the training process can contribute to a significant increase in all the necessary young cheerleaders physical abilities.
