| Popis: | Sporting success may be influenced by several factors, the magnitudes of which are revealedthroughout the athletes' training process. This study sought to systematically review researchthat deals qualitatively with the sporting trajectory of elite athletes in artistic gymnastics(AG). The searches were conducted in the Web of Science and Scopus databases,contemplating studies published before July 2020. Data extraction was organized accordingto the focus and location of the study (context), participants, and methodology used, wherebywe analyzed the variables associated with the athletes' trajectory. We located 318 articlesand, after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 15 original studies were selected forthe review. The articles used semi-structured interviews with athletes, former athletes,coaches, referees, and managers. In two studies, the authors used methodologicalassumptions of oral history: one of them documental analysis, and the other ethnography. Thesystematic review revealed that parental support is essential for insertion and retention in thesport, both for logistical (financing, transportation, organization of school activities) andemotional reasons. Financial support and good training facilities are factors that positivelyinfluence success in AG. A healthy relationship between the coach and the athlete is essential,but this relationship is often reported as authoritarian. The post-career phase must beplanned and guided so that the transition happens gradually and the athlete is able to seek anew identity. |
