Description
Summary:The results of the Hungarian and the Serbian male handball national teams are similar onthe international level; in the same time, the Hungarian club teams have more success in clubcompetitions. However, general supposition is that the Serbian handball players are moresuccessful and more acknowledged across the top European handball leagues. This is confirmedby numerous Serbian internationals that play at high level in Hungary and other Europeancountries. We suppose that results of the youth national teams have considerable influence inlater success rate. In this article we were searching for the influential factors behind the successof one Serbian youth team. Since there were no considerable differences in physical performanceand anthropometric parameters (the Hungarian players were even taller), we assumed the maindifferences were in their relation and attitudes to coach and to training. In our study we supportthis explanation with an analysis of the attitudes to the head coach, work and physical training. Our samples were selected from one Serbian (Crvenka) and one Hungarian (KomlÛ) youth team. For attitudes assessment a standardized PASSES scale was used (Hagger et al., 2007). Theresults show that the Serbian youth players have better relations with their head coach and havebetter stance for work and training, which might be an explanation for their better success.
