Abstract

Understanding the factors that contribute to success or failure in Super Rugby is paramount for teams aiming to achieve positive results. This study compares winning and losing teams by analysing match-related performance indicators from 2017 to 2019, offering valuable insights for coaches, players, and performance analysts. Significantly, winning teams exhibited notable disparities in their attacking play, surpassing losing teams in total tries (4.5 vs. 2.4), offloads (12.5 vs. 11.2), number of kicks (22.2 vs. 19.4), and line breaks (3.1 vs. 2.2) ( p < .0001 for all). Moreover, defensive performance emerged as a crucial factor, with winning teams demonstrating higher tackle completion rates (89.3 vs. 87.9) ( p < .0001) and an increased number of breakdown turnovers won (0.8 vs. 0.6) ( p = .0518) compared to losing teams. These findings illuminate distinct performance characteristics that can assist coaches, players, and analysts in optimising tactical analysis, player development, and overall performance. Despite the COVID-19 disruption in 2020 and teams transitioning to other competitions, the research remains relevant due to the expected persistence of fundamental game aspects and performance indicators. This adaptability enables informed decision-making, leading to improved performance and a competitive advantage in the current Super Rugby competition.

分析超级橄榄球比赛中与比赛相关的表现指标:2017-2019赛季的研究
了解导致超级橄榄球比赛成功或失败的因素对于球队取得积极成果至关重要。本研究通过分析2017年至2019年的比赛相关表现指标,对输赢球队进行比较,为教练、球员和表现分析师提供有价值的见解。值得注意的是,获胜球队在进攻方面表现出明显的差异,在总尝试次数(4.5对2.4)、丢球次数(12.5对11.2)、踢球次数(22.2对19.4)和换行次数(3.1对2.2)方面都超过了输球球队(p <.0001)。此外,防守表现成为关键因素,获胜球队的抢断成功率更高(89.3比87.9)。(0.0001),与输球的球队相比,失误次数增加(0.8 vs. 0.6) (p = .0518)。这些发现阐明了不同的表现特征,可以帮助教练、球员和分析师优化战术分析、球员发展和整体表现。尽管2019冠状病毒病在2020年中断,球队转向其他比赛,但由于基本比赛方面和表现指标的预期持续性,该研究仍然具有相关性。这种适应性使他们能够做出明智的决策,从而在当前的超级橄榄球比赛中提高表现和竞争优势。

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching is a peer-reviewed, international, academic/professional journal, which aims to bridge the gap between coaching and sports science. The journal will integrate theory and practice in sports science, promote critical reflection of coaching practice, and evaluate commonly accepted beliefs about coaching effectiveness and performance enhancement. Open learning systems will be promoted in which: (a) sports science is made accessible to coaches, translating knowledge into working practice; and (b) the challenges faced by coaches are communicated to sports scientists. The vision of the journal is to support the development of a community in which: (i) sports scientists and coaches respect and learn from each other as they assist athletes to acquire skills by training safely and effectively, thereby enhancing their performance, maximizing their enjoyment of the sporting experience and facilitating character development; and (ii) scientific research is embraced in the quest to uncover, understand and develop the processes involved in sports coaching and elite performance.
