The effects of ankle protectors on lower limb kinematics in male football players : a comparison to braced and unbraced ankles (2017)
Journal Article
Graydon, R., Fewtrell, D., Atkins, S., & Sinclair, J. (2017). The effects of ankle protectors on lower limb kinematics in male football players : a comparison to braced and unbraced ankles. Comparative Exercise Physiology, 13(4), 251-258. https://doi.org/10.3920/CEP160031

Football (Soccer) players have a high risk of injuring the lower extremities. To reduce the risk of ankle inversion injuries ankle braces can be worn. To reduce the risk of ankle contusion injuries ankle protectors can be utilized. However, athletes...

A comparison of GPS workload demands in match play and small-sided games by the positional role in youth soccer (2017)
Journal Article
Beenham, M., Barron, D., Fry, J., Hurst, H., Figueiredo, A., & Atkins, S. (2017). A comparison of GPS workload demands in match play and small-sided games by the positional role in youth soccer. Journal of Human Kinetics, 57(1), 129-137. https://doi.org/10.1515/hukin-2017-0054

The external demands of small-sided games (SSG’s) according to positional role are currently unknown. Using Catapult Minimax X3 5Hz GPS, with a 100 Hz tri-axial accelerometer, we compared accumulated tri-axial player load per min (PLacc.min-1) during...
