Observação, Análise e Interpretação do Jogo de Futebol dos Sub.15 do Santiago Mascotelos Futebol Clube - Relatório de Estágio Profissionalizante realizado na época desportiva 2019/20

Abstract

Nowadays, we hardly find professional clubs without a Observation and Analysis department, whether in senior Football or in youth level. The clubs and their chiefs and coaches want to control and monitor the maximum of possible factors in football match, either internally or externally level. In the current state of Football, the games are being decided in the details. Recognize opponent's strengths and weaknesses (individual and collective), as well as your own team, became indispensable to coaches and with that, more elements have been added to the already multidisciplinary staff. Like the best examples in football area, many smaller clubs are trying to bet in this aspect, although still in a very rudimental way. This report was carried out as part of the professional internship with observer/analist fucntion on under-15 team at Santiago Mascotelos FC during 2019/2020 sports season and is divided into 6 chapters: 1) the Introduction, where the topics are summarized; 2) the Context of professional practice, the macro context and the legal and institutional context; 3) the Development of professional practice, the tasks performed during the internship; 4) Professional development; 5) Conclusions and future Perspectives and 6) Bibliographic references. We can verify the importance given by the clubs to have a Department of Observation, Analysis and Interpretation of the individual and colective behaviour as a decisive task in planning and preparing the training, even in youth teams, where there are already some coaches of different levels assigning importance to the area and to the use of data and information obtained to accomplish that task and also to improve the performance of their team and to explore the opposing team.
