Abstract
The aim of this study was to describe the effects of the execution of an integrated training method focused in the development of specific minihandball's motor skills and decision-making processes for children. 32 children (17 boys and 15 girls) aged between 10 and 11 years old, all of them participants on a recreational mini-handball class, where submitted in a 4 phases training method planed and proposed in a previous study. Outcomes of minihandball´s motor skills development were statistically analyzed using Repeated measures ANOVA with corrected Bonferroni post-hoc analysis. Significant improvements in mean values of successful actions (SA) where shown from phase 1 to phase 4 (<0.005). In phase 1 and 2, a detriment on specific mini-handball's motor skills where observed but only as part of the process not as a definitive result. Although physiological factors where not took in consideration, other factors belonging to neuroscience did explained the obtained phenomenon. 6 weeks of a mini-handball integrated training method, performed by 2 sessions per week, seems to be an effective tool to develop positively the acquisition of specific mini-handball's motor skills and to improve technical-tactical situation of decision-making processes.
