Twenty-five children aged 11–15 years (mean SD: 12.36 1.15 11 years) were randomly assigned into experimental (PD) and control (CT) groups. PD group (9 boys and 5 girls) trained padel twice a week for 8 weeks, and CT (7 boys and 4 girls) did not follow any training program.

 

A:Abstract Rewritted

 

It is recommended to replace this expression, "differences between children who don’t perform any sport",  with the following one: "compared to children who do not engage in any sports". activities.

 

A: Rewritted

 

In the age range of these samples, there is significant variability in the maturity status of individuals, particularly in terms of sexual maturity and hormone levels, which affect muscle mass. If possible, although the authors may not have this data, the effect of the interaction due to the sexual maturity status of each participant could be analyzed. This could be achieved using Tanner staging, even if self-reported.

 

A: We agree but we did not collect that data.

 

This difference in body mass index (BMI) between the two groups should be considered when discussing the results. A priori, and considering the younger children aged 11 to 12 years, those in the experimental group could be classified within a normal BMI category, whereas those in the control group might fall into an overweight category. This discrepancy could potentially influence the manifestation of other physical fitness variables.

 

A: Thank you for the mention. We add this also in the limitations of our study because we do not measure muscle mass, adiposity, water, …

 

 

This information regarding informed consent is repeated. It is suggested to rephrase it to avoid redundancy.

 

A: We rewritted.

 

This description requires additional information to enable the replication of the test. It is not specified whether the start is voluntary or initiated by a command from the evaluator. In the latter case, the reaction time of each individual would need to be considered, not just the speed they can achieve. Additionally, it is unclear how the measurement is taken, where the photoelectric cells are positioned at the start, and whether the individual begins from a stationary position or a running start. Furthermore, the number of attempts each person is allowed is not mentioned.

 

A: The test was supported with reference but we add a more detailled discription.

 

 

It is suggested to revise the wording of this sentence because positive responses to the training can only occur in the experimental group, never in the control group.

 

A: We agree. We rewritted.

Reviewer 4 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The manuscript addresses a relevant topic by investigating the effects of padel training on recreational young athletes, contributing to a little-explored field. The methodology is well-structured, with appropriate instruments and promising results in handgrip strength and speed. However, the small sample size, the lack of control for differences in biological maturity, and a limited analysis of variables with no significant impact (e.g., vertical jump) reduce the study's robustness. Additionally, the integration of results with existing literature could be broader, including comparisons with other sports.

Title

The title adequately reflects the study's theme, but it could be more descriptive. I suggest including "comparative study" to highlight the focus on group comparison.

Abstract

The abstract presents the main results but does not describe them clearly enough. I recommend including numerical values for the most significant variables to provide greater context and revising inconsistencies, such as the formatting of "np2 p=0.31." It should be adjusted to "η² = 0.31" to follow the standard notation in statistics.

Line 35: Replace "it has also been growing in popularity and participation" with "it has been growing in popularity," simplifying the sentence.

Lines 36-37: Replace "increasing the need to increase knowledge" with "highlighting the need to expand knowledge."

Introduction

Present the hypothesis directly. For example: "We hypothesize that 8 weeks of padel training will result in significant improvements in strength and speed compared to the control group."

Methods

Detail how randomization was conducted. For example: "simple randomization using software."

Table 1: Add descriptions of the abbreviated variables and adjust the formatting to separate the standard deviation symbol (e.g., ±) from the numbers.

Was any dietary control conducted for the sample? If not, this should be included in the limitations section.

For example, consistently use "players" instead of sometimes writing "participants" and other times writing "players."

Line 149: Add the reference.

I suggest calculating the sample size using G*Power.

Lines 179-185: Combine the information into a single paragraph.

Line 182: Remove the quotation marks from "Group x Pre-Post."

Lines 186-187: "Practice experience may affect BM in both groups" is ambiguous. I recommend rewriting it as "Practice experience might have influenced the performance in the MBT for both groups."

Table 2: Some units appear with one decimal place and others with two; maintain consistency. Also, separate the standard deviation sign from the numbers. Add a symbol highlighting statistical differences.

Figure 1 Legend: Remove abbreviations.

The discussion aligns well with previous findings, but it lacks depth in exploring the reasons why certain variables were affected by the training while others were not. Additionally, comparisons between the impacts of padel training and other racket sports (e.g., tennis, badminton) are missing.

Line 250: Change "We" to "we."

Line 255: Change "youngsters may lag in play and become isolated" to "Young individuals may experience reduced physical engagement and social interaction."

Line 299: Delete (REF).

Line 344: The phrase "Informed consent was obtained from all subjects involved in the study" could include: "and their guardians," since the participants are minors.
