DE LUCIO AVILA, Víctor Hugo. Indicators for the evaluation of athletes' performance in international sports combat tournaments. Rev Podium [online]. 2019, vol.14, n.2, pp.233-261. ISSN 1996-2452.

The need for indicators that show the performance of international sports events is a problem that requires permanent solutions, especially in those countries where the sports system is based on government budget. This paper presents a group of indicators that allow the evaluation of performance in combat sports. Specialized literature on the subject was consulted and the programs of activities of the national sports associations of the disciplines of boxing, fencing, judo, karate do, associated wrestling and taekwondo from 2011 to 2015 were reviewed. This compilation facilitated the design of proposed indicators to evaluate the performance of mexican combat sports athletes in international events, recorded in official programs and documents. These indicators have served as a reference for statesmen and sociologists who have researched on this topic.
