Summary: This study investigated the relationship between subjective and external measures of load in professional youth football players, identifying multiple components indicating that load monitoring should comprise multiple variables. It also found differences in the underlying structure across training days reflecting different goals, suggesting that effective monitoring should be specific to the demands of different session types.

Summary: This study found that professional football players may experience suppression of mucosal immunity across a season, with changes in salivary immunoglobulin A, salivary alpha-amylase, salivary cortisol, and salivary testosterone related to self-report measures of fatigue, sleep quality, and muscle soreness. In-season reductions in testosterone, cortisol, and testosterone/cortisol or increases in cortisol could indicate the need for reduced workload and improved well-being for elite football players.

Summary: The aim of this study was to quantify weekly internal workload and compare workload variables between starter and non-starter Spanish female first league football players. The results showed that starters had higher total weekly load, weekly match load, training monotony, and training strain in breath-cardiovascular, leg-musculature, and cognitive categories.

Summary: The study found that wheelchair rugby athletes had poor sleep quality during both the pre-season and in-season, with low sleep efficiency, increased sleep latency, and wake after sleep onset. Competition days showed a decrease in total sleep time and sleep efficiency, as well as an increase in wakefulness after sleep onset compared to training and rest periods.

Summary: Applying data-reduction techniques to football training load (TL) monitoring has become a hot topic. This study aimed to reduce the dimensionality of TL measures and identify the most representative measure for each principal component. A principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted, and five principal components were identified. The highest factors in each principal component were decelerations, sprint distance, average HR, chronological age, and maximal speed.

Summary: The study investigates the variables of family participation in the development process of young soccer players in the context of children's competitions in Brazil. The results indicate that while coaches recognize the significance of family involvement, negative family participation is also observed. Coaches play a crucial role in mediating and guiding this process, proposing strategies to educate parents and promote a healthier competitive environment for children.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of high intensity exercise on autonomic nervous system (ANS) recovery and function. The findings suggest that prolonged high intensity exercise impairs ANS recovery and function, highlighting the need for shorter exercise durations and extended recovery periods.

Summary: The study quantified the training and match-play load of elite Gaelic football players using GPS, RPE, and sRPE technologies across two seasons. Variations in loading patterns were observed across different phases, positions, and week types, providing valuable insights for training periodization and player load management strategies.

Summary: This study examined the influence of accumulated match-play exposure on hamstring strain injury in professional football players. It found that low match-play exposures in the previous matches increased the risk of hamstring injuries. Metrics from the match before the injury showed the best accuracy in predicting injury occurrence.

Summary: This paper examines the long-term developments in stadium attendance in professional football in the Netherlands, which have been influenced by socioeconomic factors and show a high correlation with other European leagues, particularly the English Premier League. This suggests that stadium attendance is affected by both national developments and common international trends in the interest in football matches.

Summary: This study analyzed the effects of age, relative age, and biological maturation on training load and perceived exertion in young sub-elite football players. It also explored the interaction effects among age grouping, maturation status, and birth quartiles. The findings provide important insights for optimizing training and improving performance in young football players.
