The article is devoted to the analysis of the effectiveness of technical training of young ice hockey players under the distance form of the learning and training process at the initial stage of preparation. The purpose of the study was to determine the influence of the structure and content of technical training in the context of a distance learning and training process on the level of technical, general, and special physical preparedness of young hockey players at the initial stage of preparation. Methods and materials: analysis of scientific and methodological literature; pedagogical testing; pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. The research was conducted on the basis of the Youth Sports School of Winter Sports in Dnipro and the Avangard Complex Youth Sports School in Kremenchuk from September 2022 to June 2023 (9 months). The experiment involved 2 groups of children aged 6–7 years (control group – 20 participants, experimental group – 20 participants), in their first year of training in initial preparation groups for ice hockey. Results. The analysis of the obtained results before and after the pedagogical experiment demonstrates significantly better performance of the tests among the young hockey players of the experimental group compared to the control group, particularly in indicators of technical and special physical preparedness. This confirms the effectiveness of implementing the proposed structure and content of technical training in conditions of the distance learning and training process for young hockey players at the initial stage of preparation, as well as the applied tools and methods of instruction. The findings highlight the role of distance training in stimulating children to develop their technical skills and abilities both in group sessions and independently at home. Conclusions. The positive impact of the experimental technical training program allows us to recommend its use in youth sports schools and private ice hockey clubs when working with children aged 6–7 years at the initial stage of preparation, both in distance and mixed mixed-mode learning and training format.
