A Review on the Biomechanical Studies in Soccer

축구경기의 운동역학적 분석에 대한 고찰

The purpose of this study was to analyze problems of former studies and propose directions of further studies through reviewing on studies which had been studied for improvement of soccer performance. For the review, it had been collected many donestic and foreign biomechanical researches from 1970`s until recent years in parliament library, Korean Institute of Sport Science, many other foreign journals. It showed that it had a trend to increase quantities of researches of the soccer game periodically. Most methodologies used was comprehensive researches such as analyses of game contents and biomechanical variables until 1970`s, but it had changed to fine movement analyses, injuries analyses of soccer players, sports surfaces and soccer shoes, safety equipments with development of scientific measurement equipments after 1980`s. The further study may be performed to sublate the comprehensive study with multiplicities and breaking in several parts and to research co-relative studies for the improvement of soccer game. Also, we will try to direct toward studies which it help strategic managements and scientific prescriptions for athletic training of a team, and studies of skill development and safety equipments with higher concerning about the prevention of his injuries.
