EFFECTIVENESS OF VARIABLE - PLAYING METHODOLOGY (VIM) IN BEGINNER FLORBALL PLAYERS

Considering the different teaching methodologies, we find that Variable-Playing Methodology (VIM) is recommended as an effective tool for initial training in the various collective - team sports. The basis of the VIM is the development of technical skills and motor habits in conditions close to the game. Learning and refining individual technical and tactical techniques in variations or through the game itself is a basic principle of VIM, advocated and successfully applied in many collective sports - basketball, volleyball, football, handball, hockey, and more. The introduction of VIM in the training of adolescent football players will be important from a scientific and purely applied point of view, as a sport on a global scale is still in its 'young' age, and is barely passing in Bulgaria. The purpose of the present study is to apply VIM efficacy in the training of 8-9 year-old children in floorball training to trace and analyze the development of the main technical and conditioning training indicators. The contingent of experimental work and sports-pedagogical testing were 16 children born in 2009 practicing floorball in Bulgaria - a control group and 16 children of the same age practicing playing at the Skala Club, Melitopol, Ukraine - an experimental group.
