Does biologically categorised training alter the perceived exertion and neuromuscular movement profile of academy soccer players compared to traditional age-group categorisation? (2022)
Journal Article
Salter, J., Black, J., Mallett, J., Barrett, S., Towlson, C., Hughes, J. D., & De St Croix, M. (2023). Does biologically categorised training alter the perceived exertion and neuromuscular movement profile of academy soccer players compared to traditional age-group categorisation?. European journal of sport science : the official journal of the European College of Sport Science, 23(8), 1490-1499. https://doi.org/10.1080/17461391.2022.2117090

The individual response to load is multifactorial and complicated by transient temporal changes in biological maturation. The period surrounding peak height velocity exposes potentially “fragile” individuals to systematic, age-related increases in tr...

Multi-wave analyses of coping, athlete burnout, and well-being among F. A. Premier League academy players (2022)
Journal Article
Nicholls, A. R., Madigan, D. J., & Earle, K. (2022). Multi-wave analyses of coping, athlete burnout, and well-being among F. A. Premier League academy players. Frontiers in Psychology, 13, Article 979486. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.979486

Being a player with an F. A. Premier football academy is very prestigious for young players, but it can also be very stressful too. Coping with stress is particularly important given that one of the undesirable consequences linked to chronic stress i...

Does transforming subjective measures of load better represent training and match-play intensity in youth soccer players? (2022)
Journal Article
Maughan, P. C., MacFarlane, N. G., Towlson, C., Barrett, S., & Swinton, P. A. (2023). Does transforming subjective measures of load better represent training and match-play intensity in youth soccer players?.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structure of relationships between measures of training load and assess whether these can be modified through non-linear transformations. Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and seven external load mea...
