Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to develop a physiological profile of elite Australian Youth soccer players. Over three years, 150 players from the U'17, U'20 and U'23 national squads were tested for six measurements - height, weight, sum of eight skinfolds, vertical jump, maximum oxygen consumption and speed over twenty metres. Comparisons were made between those selected in the final team (classified as Successful) and those who failed to be selected (classified as Unsuccessful) to determine any significant differences between the two groups A physical and physiological profile was obtained fo

Abstract:
Sleep is a recurring state that is considered a critical process in the optimal attainment of daily functions and recovery in athletes. However individuals from elite sports, such as soccer, may be exposed to a number of situations that may impact sleep within the competitive season (such as inconsistent schedules and travel), which may result in sub-optimal sleeping patterns. However, research documenting the sleep of soccer players is at present limited. Therefore it would seem important to investigate how soccer players sleep to further the understanding of how sleep may be impacted. On thi

Abstract:
<p> As youth sport has become increasingly professionalized, many believe that the route to elite level play is through early specialization. Early specialization is a contentious issue, and many risk factors have been associated with high levels and intensities of training in youth. Youth today participate in highly competitive sport in pursuit of elite levels of play, recognition, and financial gain. Early specialization is thought to be a requirement for advancement, yet little is known about the early experiences of team sport athletes who grew up in the US. This is the story of 15 elite f

Elite youth soccer player’s performance depends on a multitude of factors (Stølen et al. 2005).

Little is known though of the training undertaken at elite youth soccer academies to increase muscular force production capabilities particularly across maturation groups. There is also little evidence around the nature, or genetic influence on this variable in these populations. Greater knowledge on these areas would be beneficial to aid an understa
