Sažetak
Notation analysis is a great tool for water polo coaches, fitness coaches and sports scientists to be aware of the real requirements of the game. The aim of this paper is to determine and explain the results and differences in technical and tactical efficiency in women's water polo. The sample of the entities are the matches of the women's tournament of the Olympic Games in Tokyo 2021. The sample of variables are 18 defense and attack parameters of efficiency. Using a t-test for independent samples the winning and losing teams differ statistically significantly in eight variables. Statistically significant differences in swimming for the ball and shots from the counterattack between winning and losing teams can very likely be attributed to swimming superiority and the skill of timely counterattack. The dominance of winning teams in the realization with an equal number of players, man-up and counterattack situations probably stems from better skills in achieving optimal conditions in the preparation and implementation of all offensive actions. The reasons for the superiority of the winning teams in the part of defensive actions can probably be found because of better and more coordinated actions of all defensive players in blocking the ball, reducing the opponent's shots and goalkeeper shot saves. These findings encourage coaches both on the one hand to improve the player's skills in providing optimal conditions for the execution of shots and on the other hand to improve the ability to cover and guard the direct opponent who plays on multiple inside and perimeter playing positions on attack
