摘要：The aim of this study was to study the association between technical performance (volume of play, efficiencyindex and performance score) and tactical behaviour (indegree and outdegree centrality) in differentcompetitive levels of rink hockey. Fifty-two male rink hockey players (U12 – 10.94 ± 0.5 years old and 1.11± 0.5 years of practice; U14 – 12.67 ± 0.7 years old and 2.58 ± 1.9 years of practice; U16 – 15.21 ± 0.8years old and 4.92 ± 1.1 years of practice; U18 – 17.32 ± 0.9 years old and 7.15 ± 2.1 years of practice;Elite – 26.72 ± 5.4 years old and 12.09 ± 3.6 years of practice) were observed in three official matches.Results found that %IdC had a very large positive correlation with VP (r = 0.842; p = 0.001), EI (r = 0.816;p = 0.001) and PS (r = 0.866; p = 0.001). The %OdC also showed very large positive correlation with VP(r = 0.814; p = 0.001), EI (r = 0.879; p = 0.001) and PS (r = 0.859; p = 0.001). In this study it was foundthat technical level and tactical prominence measured by network measures revealed large values ofcorrelation, thus suggesting that in rink-hockey the level of activity may depend from the capacity to beeffective with ball.
