Abstract

The objective of the study was to examine the match-running load of female soccer players competing at distinct age groups (U15, U18 and senior cohorts) belonging to the same professional club, over a competitive season. The external load variables of the official matches were monitored with Global Positioning System (GPS) technology: total distance (TD), at >18 km·h−1 (running), at >21 km·h−1 (high-speed running, HSR) and at >24 km·h−1 (sprint, SPR) distances, efforts at >85% of the maximal sprint speed (>85% MSS), acceleration load (aLoaD), accelerations (ACC2 and ACC3, >2 and >3 m·s−2) and decelerations (DEC2 and DEC3 <−2 and <−3 m·s−2). Overall, distances covered at running, HSR and sprinting were greater for senior players than their younger peers (U15 and U18; p < 0.05). Regarding HSR and sprints, no difference was found for sprints accumulated by central defender (CD) players in comparison to U18 and U15 ( p > 0.05). In addition, U18 and senior players engaged more often in ACC and DEC, >2 and >3 m·s−2, respectively, than U15 players ( p < 0.05). In conclusion, older female soccer players are exposed to higher match load than their younger peers. These findings could be useful for soccer coaches to design specific speed development programmes across the long-term athletic development pathway.

女足职业俱乐部的比赛运行需求：从学院到职业队

这项研究的目的是考察隶属于同一职业俱乐部的不同年龄组（U15、U18 和高年级组）的女足运动员在一个竞技赛季中的比赛跑动负荷。利用全球定位系统（GPS）技术对正式比赛的外部负荷变量进行了监测：总距离 (TD)、18 km-h-1（跑步）、21 km-h-1（高速跑，HSR）和 24 km-h-1（短跑，SPR）距离、最大短跑速度 85% 的努力；85%的最大冲刺速度（>85% MSS）、加速负荷（aLoaD）、加速度（ACC2 和 ACC3，>2 和 >3 m-s-2）和减速度（DEC2 和 DEC3，<-2 和 <-3 m-s-2）。总体而言，高年级球员在跑步、HSR 和短跑时的距离大于低年级球员（U15 和 U18；p <0.05）。至于HSR和短跑，中后卫（CD）球员与U18和U15球员相比，短跑距离没有差异（p >0.05）。此外，与 U15 球员相比，U18 球员和高年级球员参与 ACC 和 DEC 的次数更多，分别为 2 和 3 m-s-2（p <0.05）。总之，年龄较大的女足运动员比年龄较小的女足运动员承受更高的比赛负荷。这些发现有助于足球教练在长期的运动发展过程中设计特定的速度发展计划。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching is a peer-reviewed, international, academic/professional journal, which aims to bridge the gap between coaching and sports science. The journal will integrate theory and practice in sports science, promote critical reflection of coaching practice, and evaluate commonly accepted beliefs about coaching effectiveness and performance enhancement. Open learning systems will be promoted in which: (a) sports science is made accessible to coaches, translating knowledge into working practice; and (b) the challenges faced by coaches are communicated to sports scientists. The vision of the journal is to support the development of a community in which: (i) sports scientists and coaches respect and learn from each other as they assist athletes to acquire skills by training safely and effectively, thereby enhancing their performance, maximizing their enjoyment of the sporting experience and facilitating character development; and (ii) scientific research is embraced in the quest to uncover, understand and develop the processes involved in sports coaching and elite performance.
