| description | (1) Objective: This is a quasi-experimental study that investigated the effect of four weeks of training sessions using video modeling (VM) on individual and collective technical skills in young novice basketball players. (2) Method: 20 players were equally assigned to either a control group (CG, <i>n</i> = 10; 12 ± 0.7 years) or a video modeling group (VMG, <i>n</i> = 10; 12.5 ± 0.5 years; visualizing videos before each session) were assessed before and after the four-week training period using the Basketball Skill Test of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance for individual techniques and three vs. three small-sided games for collective aspects. (3) Results: For the passing test, VMG induced higher performance than CG (<i>p</i> = 0.021; <i>d</i> = 0.87). For offensive balls post-intervention, higher values were recorded for VMG compared to CG (<i>p</i> = 0.003; <i>d</i> = 1.81). In addition, the number of attack balls index post-intervention was higher for VMG compared to CG (<i>p</i> = 0.001; <i>d</i> = 0.28). For losing the ball, VMG induced lower values than CG after the training intervention (<i>p</i> < 0.001; <i>d</i> = −3.23). The efficiency index was higher post-training compared to pre-training for VMG (<i>p</i> = 0.013; <i>d</i> = 1.24). (4) Conclusion: The study highlighted the importance of using video modeling as an effective strategy to improve technical skills and collective performance in novice young basketball players. |
