Abstract

Purpose: to analyze the achievements of the participants of the world cadet wrestling championships. Material and methods. The following methods were used in the study: analysis of scientific and methodological information and Internet sources, analysis of competitive activities, methods of mathematical statistics. The careers of the participants of the 2017 and 2018 World Women's Wrestling Championships were analyzed. The total number of participants was 411 athletes. For analysis, all participants were divided into three groups depending on their place at the World Championships: medalists (1-3 place); a group of athletes who took 5th to 10th place (intermediate level); a group of athletes who took 11th place and below (low level). The performances of the participants of the World Cup were analyzed earlier, namely the number of times they took part, won a prize or won competitions among cadets (aged 16-17) in their careers earlier. The comparative analysis allowed to determine how important the results obtained at the cadet level competitions are for the achievements at the world competitions among adults. The initial data of the speeches are taken from the official website of the International Wrestling Federation United World Wrestling (unitedworldwrestling.org). Results. More than half (57,9 %) of the participants in the Women's Wrestling Championship had experience of participating in international cadet competitions, and 42,3 % of them won prizes. It is determined that the percentage of athletes who took part is higher among the participants with a low place, so the figure varies from 58,5 to 54,2 %. At the same time, almost a third of the participants (31,9 %) won the competition among cadets, and only 17,9 % of the group of athletes who took 11th place and below won the competition among cadets. The trend of distribution of athletes who have never won a competition is similar to the previous one, but the percentage of those who failed to do so is much higher: 82,1 % of athletes who took 11th place and below; 77,1 % of athletes took 5th to 10th place and 68,1 % of medalists. Almost the same percentage of athletes won once, regardless of their place at the World Championships (approximately 12-14 %). Only the medalists of the World Cup were able to win two and three times earlier in most cases (about 10 %). It should be noted that four times or more no athlete who took part in the world championship could win. Conclusions. The analysis of performances of sportswomen-participants of the world championship on women's wrestling at the previous stages, in particular at competitions among cadets is carried out. Significantly higher number of participants (in percentage), who won prizes at the World Championships among athletes, who were among the winners three and four times in competitions among cadets. Keywords: women wrestling, competition, result, career.
