ABSTRACT
El balonmano, un deporte altamente dinámico y competitivo, involucra una interacción compleja de variables que influyen en el rendimiento de jugadores y equipos, entre ellas está la comunicación. Este artículo se centra en examinar la relación entre la comunicación y el entrenamiento en el balonmano durante el período 2013-2023. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática es revelar el estado actual de la investigación en este ámbito. 12 estudios fueron exhaustivamente revisados, abordando la comunicación, el rendimiento y la formación en el contexto del balonmano a partir de una revisión sistemática siguiendo las directrices del PRISMA, recopilando evidencia de una exhaustiva búsqueda de literatura en la Web of Science, abarcando artículos publicados entre 2013 y 2023. Los resultados resaltan un interés creciente en la comunicación entre entrenadores y jugadores, especialmente enfocado en mejorar el rendimiento de los jugadores. La literatura subraya la importancia de una comunicación efectiva en la formación y el desempeño, pero se identifica una carencia en el enfoque integral de la comunicación como variable crítica. A pesar de la evidencia abundante sobre su importancia, la exploración de la comunicación en el contexto del balonmano aún está en sus etapas iniciales en comparación con otros deportes. Se concluye que existe un creciente interés en la relación entre la comunicación del entrenador y el rendimiento de los jugadores en balonmano, pero se necesita un enfoque más integral. Los entrenadores pueden utilizar esta información para mejorar la formación y el rendimiento (AU)
Handball, a highly dynamic and competitive sport, involves a complex interplay of variables influencing player and team performance, with communication being one of them. This article focuses on examining the relationship between communication and coaching in handball during the period 2013-2023. The objective of this systematic review is to unveil the current state of research in this field. Twelve studies were thoroughly reviewed, addressing communication, performance, and coaching in the context of handball through a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines, gathering evidence from an extensive literature search in the Web of Science, covering articles published between 2013 and 2023. The results highlight a growing interest in coach-player communication, particularly aimed at enhancing player performance. The literature underscores the importance of effective communication in training and performance but identifies a lack of a comprehensive approach to communication as a critical variable. Despite ample evidence of its significance, the exploration of communication in the context of handball is still in its early stages compared to other sports. It is concluded that there is a rising interest in the relationship between coach communication and player performance in handball, but a more comprehensive approach is needed. Coaches can use this information to enhance training and performance (AU)

Traditional models to train and teach young players in team sports assume that athletes learn as linear systems. However, an actual methodology called Non-Linear Pedagogy (NLP) accounts for the fact that the players and the team are complex dynamic systems. Experiences in handball under this methodology are scarce; due to this, an observational study has been conducted with a follow-up, idiographic and multidimensional design, in which 14 female school handball players belonging to four different local teams in Santiago, Chile (age = 15.55 + 0.51) agreed to participate in three special handball training sessions with the use of the NLP methodology where three different constraints were used. Descriptive analysis with the Chi-squared test showed a total of 252 observations where most of the variables were dependent on the constraints (p ≤ 0.001). Frequency showed that mainly "Defense in Line of progression" and "Proximal contact" were the most activated variables, followed by "Harassment" and "Deterrence" for all constraints. However, only constraint 2 highly activated two collective motor behaviors, while the rest only did it with individual motor behaviors. It is concluded that the constraints used in training seem to be effective in activating a group of defensive handball motor behaviors, specifically those that are basic for female school handball players.
ABSTRACT
Several resistance training programs using conventional methodologies have been implemented with the purpose of improving the ability to perform power actions in handball, especially during the competitive season. In contrast, methodologies based on a contemporary perspective, which considers the human being as a self-regulating biological entity, and designed specifically for female college players, are scarce. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of an eight-week resistance training program, in which the athletes were able to control the loads according to their self-perceived effort and rest on their repeated shuttle sprint and jump ability. The sample was composed of 16 female players of a handball team from the faculty of physics and mathematics sciences of a Chilean university. The RSSJA test was used to evaluate players' conditions pre- and post-training program, and the self-perceived effort scale called OMNI-RES was used for the prediction and control of loads. Results indicated that, after the application of an eight-week resistance training program, significant improvements p ≤ 0.05 on the jump height (pre: 1836.4 W; average post: 2088.9 W) and running speed (average pre: 3.2 m/s; average post: 4.0 m/s) were obtained, as well as a significant reduction in the loss of power and speed between each set of the applied test.
