Detection, selection and promotion of sports talents in rhythmic gymnastic: a revision study

Poucos são os estudos que abordam as questões relacionadas ao diagnóstico e prognóstico de talentos esportivos em nosso país. Na Ginástica Rítmica Desportiva (GRD), essas questões parecem não estar bem esclarecidas, possivelmente por tratar-se de uma modalidade esportiva bastante recente. Percebe-se que os critérios para se detectar, selecionar ou promover ginastas ao alto nível, quase sempre são estabelecidos subjetivamente pelas técnicas, sem a utilização de critérios científicos. Os estudos já realizados apontam para a necessidade de conhecimento do potencial genético das atletas, associado a um meio ambiente favorável ao seu desenvolvimento. Este estudo de revisão teve por objetivo tentar esclarecer a importância de se utilizar critérios científicos fundamentados em referenciais cineantropométricos de ginastas de alto nível de diferentes categorias, com a finalidade de identificar as possuidoras de talento e desenvolvê-las por meio de treinamento sistematizado, para que atinjam o mais alto desempenho possível, em razão do potencial existente.
