Concepções de treinadores “experts” brasileiros sobre o processo de formação desportiva do jogador de voleibol. Rev. Bras. Educ. Fís. Esporte [online]. 2010, vol.24, n.01, pp.79-93. ISSN 1981-4690.

The aim of the present study was to examine the conceptions of expert coaches concerning the volleyball player’s long term sport development. The participants were 10 expert coaches. The sample presented 45 ± 13.8 years old and 24.8 ± 12.1 years of coaching experience in the Brazilian volleyball. Data collection was accomplished through structured open answer interviews based on FERNANDES’ protocol (2004). Its content adaptation to sociocultural and sportive Brazilian reality was accomplished through expert validation. The treatment of the information was accomplished through content analysis, with logicsemantic procedures of the prevalent ideas in the corpus of interviews. The reliability of codifi cation was assured by percentage accord of the same encoder and the different encoders, registering values between 95% and 100%. The present study evidences that no participant knows about the existence of a national long term sport development model for a volleyball player. Moreover, coaches confirmed that the Volleyball is a sport of late specialization, being a widespread consensus that the age of initiation of systematic practice is in the beginning of adolescence, around the age of 13 years old. The components of sport development throughout the stages highlight the practice of the deliberate play in the first stage, where diversified motor experiences prevail. From the second stage, the deliberate practice increases with the acquisition of specific competences and commitment with the modality. The absence of specification of the training contents along the stages, as well as the scanty reference to the psychosocial competences along the stages, can be due, in great measure, to the inexistence of a national model of long term sport development.
