The Research On The Competition Pressure And Management Of The Excellent Swimming Athletes In Guangdong Province

Swimming is an important event of Olympic Games,which has a pivotal influence in the “Olympic Plan” in China.With the development of science and technology,training theories and methods of the swimming project have already become quite mature,so the focus of the present study is about psychological adjustment,with which the athletes will obtain good competitive state of mind for the best performance in the game.This thesis combines theory and practice to discuss the problem of competition pressure of Guangdong excellent swimming athletes.Taking 40 excellent swimming athletes as participants,this thesis adopts literature method,interview method,survey research method and mathematical statistics method to analyze the competition pressure of excellent swimming athletes in Guangdong Province.Based on that,the author explores the basic features of the competition pressure and its factors.At the same time,provided by theoretical and practical supports,corresponding management strategies are formulated in order to reduce or eliminate the competition pressure.The following conclusions are drawn from the research on the competition pressure and its management of Guangdong excellent swimming athletes:1.The overall competition pressure level of excellent swimmer from Guangdong Province stays high,among the seven dimensions of the competition pressure source of the excellent swimming athletes in Guangdong Province,the pressure from the competition dimension is the greatest.2.The competition pressure of outstanding swimming athletes from Guangdong Province varies in sources and response with the feature of introversion.3.There are significant differences between male and female athletes in the competition pressure of Guangdong Province,and in generally,the overall competition pressure level of male is lower than female.4.There is also a significant pressure difference among the athletes of different period,and the athletes of training years A2(more than 5 years)have greater stressthan those who of the training years A1(less than or equal to 5 years).5.There exists a significant pressure difference of Elite Swimming Athletes from different level in Guangdong Province,and the overall B1 level athletes(international athletes and national athletes)have greater pressure than those B2 level athletes(national level athletes).6.The pressure also varies with different degrees of education.The pressure gets lower as the degrees of education get lower.7.The elite swimming athletes from Guangdong are young and have a relatively low degree of education.Besides,their emotional volatility and the level of cognition are relatively low,so this paper mainly regulates and manages the competition pressure from cognitive and emotional aspects.8.The cognitive regulation for Guangdong excellent swimming athletes includes the management of their attributional style,the goal setting of the game and the psychological skill training.9.The emotional regulation for Guangdong excellent swimming athletes includes the management of external stimulation,physical and psychological factors.
