Sixty-eight youth football players (U14, U15, U16, U17) performed maximal and submaximal field endurance tests. Biological maturity was estimated calculating the distance from peak height velocity (Y-PHV). Physical match activities were tracked using GPS units and players&#8217; post-match rate of perceived exertion (RPE) was recorded. Mainly moderate associations were found between field tests and match activities. Large correlations were found between Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery test level 1, distance covered at high and very high-speed running, the quantity of very high and maximal metabolic power running. Small to moderate associations between match activities and Y-PHV were observed. The magnitude of correlation between match activities and field tests increased from moderate to large when matches with an RPE&gt;5 were considered. The results provide further evidence of the association between young football players&#8217; aerobic performance and match work rate. Submaximal field tests demonstrate ecological validity and may constitute a practical alternative to performing maximal tests. Maturation was found to have a moderate effect on youth players&#8217; match work rate.<\/p>\n<p>Int J Sports Med. 2019 Sep;<\/p>\n<p>PMID: 31272110 DOI: <a class=\"id-link\" href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-0938-5431\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-action=\"doi\" data-ga-category=\"full_text\"> 10.1055\/a-0938-5431\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8709,"template":"","categories":[858,863,873,859],"tags":[437,446,439,447,197,449],"class_list":["post-5256","attivita-scientifica","type-attivita-scientifica","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-calcio-en","category-soccer-3-en","category-sport-performance-en","category-testing-en","tag-andrea-bosio-en","tag-carlo-castagna-en","tag-darragh-connolly-en","tag-domenico-carlomagno-en","tag-ermanno-rampinini-en","tag-lorenzo-francini-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
