An interview with the coaches was also used to find out their knowledge, criteria, and performance at work with these techniques, and the survey was used to assess the athletes' knowledge about the importance of technical preparation in these actions. In addition, a measurement was carried out by means of a technical test, to know the behavior of the execution of these in the athletes reason for research, in which the variables analyzed were: score obtained, total of actions and form of performance (direct, combination or as a counterattack).
