Comparative Study On Offensive And Defensive Ability Of Chinese Men’s Water Polo Match

The Chinese Men’s Water Polo Team,which won the title in successive Asian Games in 1978,1982,1986 and 1990,has been the Asian champion in water polo events.Under the background of building a powerful sports country in the new era,how to make men’s water polo return to the world stage is one of the problems to be solved urgently.Based on literature,expert interview,video analysis,questionnaire survey,mathematical statistics and field survey,this study establishes the evaluation index system of attack and defense ability of men’s water polo match.The following conclusions have been reached:(1)An index system for evaluating the offensive and defensive ability of men’s water polo competitions is established.Finally,2 first-class indexes,6 second-class indexes and42 third-class indexes of offensive and defensive ability are determined.The index system can accurately and effectively reflect the defense ability of men’s water polo competition,and can make the evaluation indexes of offensive and defensive ability of men’s water polo competition of the National Games and the Olympic Games be compared under the same dimension.(2)The offensive and defensive abilities of the men’s water polo teams in the National Games vary.In terms of attack,the Guangdong Team(the first place)is flexible in the use of tactics;the Shaanxi Team(the fifth place)is not flexible in the use of tactics transformation after the fast break;the Shanghai Team(the second place),the Hunan Team(the third place)and the Guangxi Team(the fourth place)are mainly centre-forward in the attack,with less penetration.Defensively,the Guangdong team has the priority to adopt recovery tactics,and only when it is absolutely sure to defend the center forward,will it use the all-court press tactics;the Shanghai team and the Hunan team adopt the mixed tactics of recovery tactics and press tactics to switch with each other,and the tactics adopted vary according to the opponent;the Shaanxi team adopts the all-court press tactics,but when it meets the opponent with strong strength,it will often be scored by the center of the offensive side.Sichuan team and Zhejiang team swimming ability,tactical cooperation and physical confrontation performance are poor,the overall ability to be improved.(3)Our country man water polo competition attack and defense ability has the disparity with the overseas.Offensively,the strength of the teams in the National Games varies greatly,the intensity of the confrontation is not strong enough,the game to improve the role of players play is not obvious.But in the Olympic Games competition,each team strength is equal,in each competition displays the strong aggressiveness and the confrontation,can the multi-level multi-dimensional promotion attack ability.Defense,the National Games players with the team is not enough tacit understanding;and the Olympic games,the use of more flexible tactics.It is suggested that:(1)In the National Games,the strength of each team differs greatly,the intensity of confrontation is not intense enough,this situation does not help any team to improve,nor is the overall image of China’s water polo.It is suggested that the relevant departments should establish a system for the same level teams to compete on the same field for many times as soon as possible so as to promote the development of Chinese water polo players.(2)Improve the training level and make up for the weakness of offensive and defensive abilities.In the aspect of attacking,the training of underwater action should be increased in position attacking,and the reasonable underwater action and physical resistance should be used to occupy the advantageous position.In the aspect of defense,we should increase the instantaneous training of attacking and defending and try to improve the players’ defense consciousness.(3)Strengthen the flexibility and diversity in the use of tactics.On the offensive side,we should strengthen the flexible conversion and application of counter-attack tactics,center tactics and swimming penetration tactics,enhance the tacit understanding degree of the inside and outside players,choose the appropriate time to pass the ball and maximize the scoring probability.Defensive aspect,must strengthen the whole defense tactic the training,causes on the field 7 players to be able to form the integrity.And strengthen the five defenses six tactical application of flexibility,so that the movement of each player to form a whole with.In the position defense must strengthen the player to cooperate similarly,when the center loses the position or the outside swims cuts in,flexible,positive recovery,guaranteed does not lose the defensive position.(4)Diversified selection of opponents with different styles to compete,comprehensively increase players’ understanding of tactics,actively train players with different tactical styles,and increase training opportunities among provincial teams,so that Chinese athletes can form a unified tactical thinking in international competitions and make adequate preparations for world competitions.
