摘要：The aim of the research is to improve the training process for novice hockey players by applying movement games. In the initiation stage, it is necessary to carry out a thorough physical training because it supports the effort in training and competitions, contributes to the correct mastery of the technical elements and procedures and prevents the occurrence of injuries. Methods. The research was attended by 24 subjects, children and juniors from CSS Galați, who practice ice hockey. To carry out the study, several research methods were used, as follows: analysis of the literature, observation method (direct and indirect), test method which allowed the evaluation of the targeted functional individuals, experimental method and statistical-mathematical method that allowed highlighting the evolution of the results obtained from the trainings performed. Results. Following the training, which was based on the use of movement games, there was an improvement in physiological indicators. The evolution of the obtained results emerged from the statistical analysis performed for each subject. Conclusions. We believe that the use of movement games in the training of novice hockey players is indispensable for the development of deadly qualities, but also contributes successfully to the formation of specific deadly skills and abilities. The realization of the physical training is agreed by the novice athletes, thus, the analyzed physiological indicators had very good values.
