| Popis: | The aim of this study was to explore the tactical effects of different pitch configurations on the collective playing tactics and the creation of goal scoring opportunities (GSO) during small sided soccer games (SSG) in youth players. A total of 22 players performed a 7 vs. 7 + 1 floater (including goalkeepers) under three different pitch configurations (“Standard”, 53 × 38 m “Long”, 63 × 32 m and “Wide”, 43 × 47 m). Eleven tactical indicators related to the development and the end of the team possessions were evaluated by systematic observation. Friedman tests (non-parametric ANOVA for repeated measures) revealed that the long and wide configurations produced more counterattacks (p = 0.0028 ES = 0.3), higher offensive penetration (p = 0.007 ES = 0.41), and more GSO (p = 0.018 ES = 0.30) than the standard format. Regarding the creation of GSO, the wide configuration produced more assists in the form of crosses than the long and standard formats (p = 0.025 ES = 0.31), more utilization of wide subspaces to assist the final player (p = 0.022 ES = 0.35), more number of headers as the final action (p = 0.022 ES = 0.32), and less assists in the form of passes in behind the defense (p = 0.034 ES = 0.28), than the long configuration. The modulation of the pitch configuration during SSG produced different tactical demands, requiring players to implement different tactical solutions to create GSO. |
