QE duration, skin conductance (SC), and heart rate (HR) were recorded for 20 shooters (10 novices and 10 intermediates) during shooting. All variables were examined according to the score and total shots. Physiological parameters were evaluated according to the shooting phases. Intermediate shooters exhibited significantly longer QE duration than novices (p < .001). There were no significant differences in QE duration and normalised SC according to the score and normalised SC between groups (p > .05). In SC, an increase in the preparation and resting phase and a decrease in the aiming phase were observed in both groups (p < .001). Intermediate shooters had lower HR than novices in all phases (p < .001). Additionally, more HR changes were detected in the intermediate shooters than in novices. HR of 10-score shots was lower than other shots (p < .05). Intermediate shooters exhibited longer QE duration than novices and they can decelerate their HR before shots. Coaches are recommended to incorporate exercises into training programmes that will enhance the visual focusing skills and reduce heart rate for novice shooters.KEYWORDS: Quiet eye durationskin conductanceheart rateair pistol performancegaze behaviour AcknowledgementsThe study was supported by Eskisehir Technical University (Project number: Eskisehir Technical Uni./BAP 1703S071).

Also, match location and the differences between divisions were considering between the pre- and post-lockdown. A total of 144,689 records from 842 soccer matches during the 2019/20 season of the First (n = 380) and Second Spanish Division (n = 462) were collected. Match data were collected using the ChryonHego video-tracking system. Pre-lockdown (1st–27th matchday in First Division and 1st–31st matchday in Second Spanish Division) and post-lockdown periods (28th–38th matchday in First Division and 32nd–42nd matchday in Second Spanish Division) were compared. The match location contextual-related variable was also considered for the analysis. Linear mixed models showed that the number of outplayed players by ball possession (3.1%), successful passes (17.5%) and total passes (18.9%) increased during the post-lockdown period (p < .001). In addition, match location and league significantly influenced the successful and total passes in all situations (p < .001), increasing in the post-lockdown period. In conclusion, the lockdown period has led changes in the ball possession of the soccer teams. These results help to understand the impact that a particular and unusual situation as the interruption of the league due to COVID-19 lockdown had on the performance of professional soccer teams.KEYWORDS: COVID-19 outbreakelite soccermatch analysispandemictechnical-tactical AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), the Government of Extremadura (Department of Economy and Infrastructure) and LaLiga Research and Analysis Sections.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), the Government of Extremadura (Department of Economy and Infrastructure) and LaLiga Research and Analysis Sections.","PeriodicalId":14248,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Performance Analysis in Sport","volume":" 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135242737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were collected from all matches played in the First (Liga Santander; n = 2,950) and Second Spanish Division (Liga Smartbank; n = 2,966) over four consecutive seasons (from 2015/2016 to 2018/2019). Team performance (points won), total distance (TD), high-intensity running distance (HIRD, distance 21–24 km⋅h−1), very-high-intensity running distance (VHIRD, >24 km⋅h−1) and the number of efforts between 21–24 km⋅h−1 (Sp21) and >24 km⋅h−1 (Sp24) were analysed. All within-season coaching dismissals were examined. Results showed that team performance was significantly higher after coach dismissal across short term (p < .001). Concerning match physical demands, across the short term, only TD was significantly greater after coach dismissal (p < .01); while across long terms, TD, HIRD, VHIRD, Sp21 and Sp24 were significantly greater during post coach dismissal stage (p < .001) than the prior coach dismissal stage.

Therefore, the objective of this study is to provide an overview of the training practices employed by elite Spanish sprint coaches. A descriptive analysis was conducted using customised questionnaires from 14 sprint-specialised coaches who volunteered to participate. These coaches used both traditional (50%) and block periodisation (50%). Many coaches (78.6%) divided training into three phases within each of the two macrocycles. Additionally, all coaches incorporated a tapering phase of varying durations. During the general preparation phase, the focus was on strength training (78.6%) and tempo training (85.7%). In the specific preparation phase, priority was strength-speed (92.9%) and speed-endurance (100%). The competitive phase emphasised speed-strength (100%), acceleration and maximal velocity (92.9%). Coaches incorporated technique work prior to sprint sessions (100%) and conducted specific monitoring/testing sessions (78.6%). Most coaches also monitored indicators of fatigue (78.6%) and recovery parameters (100%). In conclusion, elite Spanish sprint coaches employ relatively similar strength and sprint training methods throughout the season, gradually shifting the focus towards competition specificity. However, these coaches implement different macro-periodisation models.KEYWORDS: Athleticsperiodisationsprint performancestrength and conditioningcoaches’ practices AcknowledgementsThe first author has been granted with funds provided by the Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha (Ref. 2022-INVGO-11143).Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":14248,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Performance Analysis in Sport","volume":"160 8‐9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135393033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates whether the currently used rating of the teams, the UEFA club coefficient, can be improved by taking the games played in the national leagues into account. According to our logistic regression models, a variant of the Elo method provides a higher accuracy in terms of explanatory power in the Champions League matches. The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) is encouraged to follow the example of the FIFA World Ranking and reform the calculation of the club coefficients in order to avoid unbalanced schedules in the novel tournament format of the Champions League.","PeriodicalId":14248,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Performance Analysis in Sport","volume":"41 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135480289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Time interval has been hypothesised to affect timing factors, such as game duration, rally time, rest time, rest at point 11, and rest time between games. Overall, 56 matches (n = 127 games) were analysed using video footage. We found that year affected all variables from 2006 to 2017, except for the total points played. Consequently, game duration, rally time, rest time, rest time at point 11 and rest time between games increased by 54.0% (p = 0.002, r = 0.407), 62.2% (p = 0.000), 49.3% (p = 0.000), 44% (p < 0.001, r = 0.36) and 74.9% (p = 0.000, r = 0.50), respectively. Furthermore, we suggest that game characteristics in men’s singles badminton matches evolve towards longer rallies with longer rest time, rest time at point 11 and rest time between games, exceeding the limits of the badminton regulation. Therefore, stricter rule enforcement, the introduction of a time limit for the rest time between the rallies, which is similar to the shot clock implemented in tennis for the service execution or a change of the scoring system appears to be necessary to ensure a further reduction of the game duration.KEYWORDS: Badmintonmatch analysiselite performersworld championshipsrally-point scoring system AcknowledgementsWe thank Dominik Eiden for his support during data acquisition and Jonas Breuer during data analyses.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Badminton World Federation (BWF) under Research Grants 2017-18.","PeriodicalId":14248,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Performance Analysis in Sport","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135617078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite its long history, the model’s usefulness remains limited due to difficulties in obtaining precise parameter estimates and performance predictions. To help address these challenges, we developed a Bayesian implementation of the IR model, which formalises the combined use of prior knowledge and data. We report the following methodological contributions: 1) we reformulated the model to facilitate the specification of informative priors, 2) we derived the IR model in Bayesian terms, and 3) we developed a method that enabled the JAGS software to be used while enforcing parameter constraints. To demonstrate proof-of-principle, we applied the model to the data of a national-class middle-distance runner. We specified the priors from published values of IR model parameters, followed by estimating the posterior distributions from the priors and the athlete’s data. The Bayesian approach led to more precise and plausible parameter estimates than nonlinear least squares. We conclude that the Bayesian implementation of the IR model shows promise in addressing a primary challenge to its usefulness for athlete monitoring.KEYWORDS: Athletic performancemathematical modellingBayes theoremcomputer simulation AcknowledgementsThe authors thank Dr. Marc D.
