Abstract

Since practitioners of any sport need to correctly execute their motor abilities to have a good performance in the game, this case study of transverse and mixed methods approach aimed to investigate the efficiency of Acceptance and Overcoming the Motor Error (AOME) method by futsal players’ perception. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and analyzed through male futsal players’ (n=3) speeches from the Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB), identifying characteristics by absolute frequency, mean and standard deviation. The method was applied by Physical Education students from UFPB using images and physical activities practiced twice a week for two weeks during 44 minutes on average. The players were right-footed (n=1) and left-footed (n=2), 20.3 years old on average (±1.6) and all in the autonomous stage of ball control. The results suggested that participants promptly accepted their motor errors and there were improvements in the trained skill with no negative aspects of the method declared by the subjects. Therefore, accordingly to the player's perception, the AOME method effectively promoted the correct performance of the researched skill and can be seen as a viable option to improve motor abilities in futsal practitioners.
