Youth soccer academies are dominated by the older players in each annual age cohort because they are judged to be better at the time of selection. Failing to identify talented players because they are simply younger in their cohort is a problem of both discrimination and poor practice. One potential method for addressing such biases is to develop a...
Background/Objectives: Dribbling is a fundamental skill in soccer, but assessing the performance of youth players in this skill is complicated by the confounded effects of age and physical development. In this study, our aim was to quantify the interactive effects of age, height, and mass on the dribbling performance of 180 players between 10 and 2...
In many youth sports, selection into elite training academies is dominated by athletes born earlier in the year. Previous research suggests this is partly due to these athletes being more physically developed than their younger peers. How athletes born later in the year survive in elite academies is less understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis t...
We designed and tested a protocol for measuring the performance of individuals in small‐sided soccer games. We tested our protocol on three different groups of youth players from elite Brazilian football academies. Players in each group played a series of 3v3 games, in which individuals were randomly assigned into new teams and against new opponent...
Kicking powerfully and accurately is essential in soccer, and players who kick proficiently with both feet are highly sought after. Assessing performance in youth players is often confounded by more physically developed players outperforming their smaller peers. To alleviate such bias, we present a testing protocol and normative data developed with...
O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o equilíbrio postural de idosos praticantes de duas modalidades de exercícios físicos, idosos não praticantes e adultos jovens, na presença e ausência de informação visual. Participaram 51 indivíduos (n = 31 do sexo feminino e n = 20 do sexo masculino), subdivididos em quatro grupos: idosos praticantes de karatê...

The aim of this study was to use technical skill and physical performance and coaches’ rankings to predict the defensive performance of junior soccer players. Twenty-one male players (mean age 17.2 years, SD = 1.1) were recruited from the Londrina Junior Team Football Academy in Brazil. Data were collected during regular training sessions. After pa...

The five 30 m-long paths used to assess dribbling and sprinting performance for the individual players in our study.
The curvature of each path was (A) 0 radians.m-1, (B) 0.37 radians.m-1, (C) 0.67 radians.m-1, (D) 1.03 radians.m-1, and (E) 1.37 radians.m-1. The outline of each path was marked with 6 mm plastic chain and the width of each path was...

Factor loadings of each measured variable and the direction in which they contribute towards the components are shown. See the text for a description of each trait. The first component of the...
This study examined the effect of temporal occlusion of a volleyball spike on the defensive decision making of athletes with different levels of experience. The participants were divided in three groups:
adult (GAD; n = 16), sub-17 (GIM; n = 16) and novice adult (GNO; n = 16). Images of attacks performed by 4 athletes were edited in fi ve different...
The objective was to present some reflections about what has been discussed by the scientific community in general, and in the field of Physical Education in special, on the theme of questionable practices used in scientific research. Among the numerous strategies to take advantage of the system that evaluates research productivity, the questiona...
O objetivo do estudo foi analisar os efeitos da ingestão de cafeína sobre o desempenho físico e estado de humor de ciclistas em teste contrarrelógio de 1 km. Dez ciclistas do sexo masculino realizaram aleatoriamente um teste contrarrelógio de 1 km em duas condições experimentais: ingestão de cafeína (CAF - 6 mg.kg-1) e placebo (PL) 60 min antes do...
INTRODUÇÃO O futsal faz parte de um conjunto de modalidades esportivas que com-põem os chamados Jogos Desportivos Coletivos (JDC) que, para Garganta (1997), caracterizam-se por serem jogos em que as ações são executadas de forma imprevisível, apresentando características eminentemente táticas. Adi-cionalmente, o futsal exige de seu praticante uma p...

Dez ciclistas do sexo masculino realizaram aleatoriamente um teste contra-relogio de 1 km em duas condicoes experimentais: ingestao de cafeina (CAF - 6 mg.kg -1 ) e placebo (PL) 60 min antes d...
This study analyzed the effects of caffeine ingestion on physical performance and mood state of cyclists in a 1km time trial test. Ten male cyclists performed randomly a 1km time-trial test under two experimental conditions: Caffeine (CAF - 6 mg.kg-1) and placebo (PL) 60 min before the test. During the test were obtained the total time and the mood...

Frequency domain analyses of changes in electromyographic (EMG) signals over time are frequently used to assess muscle fatigue. Fourier based approaches are typically used in these analyses, yet Fourier analysis assumes signal stationarity, which is unlikely during dynamic contractions. Wavelet based methods of signal analysis do not assume station...
