Resumo: | The Covid-19 pandemic impacted hundreds of high-performance athletes whose reflexes were present not only during the period of social isolation, but also after returning to in-person activities. Given the changes in practice and routine resulting from the pandemic, this study sought to understand the perception of athletes about this experience. The sample consisted of 10 athletes from the field soccer modality, five from the under 17 category and five from the under 20 category. A sociodemographic questionnaire and semi-structured interview were used. From the content analysis, the results indicated that the athletes perceived difficulties such as: performing the tasks of sports practice (space at home, training alone, keeping the focus and activities routine), adjusting to changes and experiencing feelings of emotional distress ; however, resting with the family, adapting to the new conditions proposed by social isolation, engaging in free-time activities, feelings about valuing personal and professional life were aspects identified as positive. Apparently, the athletes were adjusting psychologically, managing their sports routine better and introducing new free time activities throughout the pandemic period, especially due to the support offered by the club and multidisciplinary team. Such knowledge can be used as a basis for the development of prevention projects in the face of psychological vulnerabilities arising from the social isolation experienced by high-performance athletes, as well as helping psychology professionals to adjust interventions aimed at athletes who experience similar situations. |

Dados los cambios en la práctica y la rutina derivados de la pandemia, este estudio buscó comprender la percepción de los deportistas sobre esta experiencia. La muestra estuvo conformada por 10 deportistas de la modalidad de fútbol de campo, cinco de la categoría Sub-17 y cinco de la categoría Sub-20. Se utilizó cuestionario sociodemográfico y entrevista semiestructurada. A partir del análisis de contenido, los resultados indicaron que los deportistas percibieron dificultades como: realizar las tareas de la práctica deportiva (espacio en casa, entrenar solo, mantener el enfoque y la rutina de actividades), adaptarse a los cambios y experimentar sentimientos de angustia emocional; sin embargo, descansar con la familia, adaptarse a las nuevas condiciones que propone el aislamiento social, realizar actividades de tiempo libre, sentimientos de valoración de la vida personal y profesional fueron aspectos identificados como positivos. Al parecer, los deportistas se fueron adaptando psicológicamente, gestionando mejor su rutina deportiva e introduciendo nuevas actividades de tiempo libre durante todo el período pandémico, sobre todo gracias al apoyo ofrecido por el club y el equipo multidisciplinar. Dicho conocimiento puede servir de base para el desarrollo de proyectos de prevención ante las vulnerabilidades psicológicas derivadas del aislamiento social que experimentan los deportistas de alto rendimiento, así como para ayudar a los profesionales de la psicología a ajustar intervenciones dirigidas a deportistas que viven situaciones similares.A pandemia de Covid-19 impactou centenas de atletas de alto rendimento cujos reflexos se fizeram presentes não só durante o período de isolamento social mas, também, após o retorno às atividades presenciais. Diante das mudanças na prática e rotina, decorrentes da pandemia, o presente estudo buscou compreender a percepção de atletas sobre essa experiência. A amostra foi composta por 10 atletas da modalidade de futebol de campo, sendo cinco da categoria Sub-17 e cinco da categoria Sub-20. Foram utilizados um questionário sociodemográfico e entrevista semiestruturada. A partir da análise de conteúdo, os resultados indicaram que os atletas perceberam dificuldades como: realizar as tarefas da prática esportiva (espaço em casa, treinar sozinho, manter o foco e rotina das atividades), se ajustar às mudanças e vivenciar sentimentos de sofrimento emocional; entretanto, o descanso em família, a adaptação às novas condições propostas pelo isolamento social, engajamento nas atividades de tempo livre, sentimentos quanto a valorização da vida pessoal e profissional foram aspectos apontados como positivos. Aparentemente, os atletas foram se ajustando psicologicamente, administrando melhor a rotina esportiva e inserindo novas atividades de tempo livre ao longo do período pandêmico, especialmente devido ao suporte oferecido pelo clube e equipe multidisciplinar. Tal conhecimento pode ser utilizado como base na elaboração de projetos de prevenção diante de vulnerabilidades psicológicas advindas do isolamento social vivenciado por atletas de alto rendimento bem como ajudar os profissionais da psicologia a ajustar as intervenções direcionadas à atletas que vivenciam situações similares.Research, Society and Development2022-01-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2459410.33448/rsd-v11i1.24594Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 1; e23311124594Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 1; e23311124594Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 1; e233111245942525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/24594/21828Copyright (c) 2022 Gisele Maria da Silva; Andressa Martins dos Santos; Tatiana Cassia Nakanohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Gisele Maria daSantos, Andressa Martins dos Nakano, Tatiana Cassia 2022-01-16T18:08:18Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24594Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:43:05.741652Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
