More and more football clubs are using "release velocity" as a key metric in their technical and physical profiling. Hear from Matthew Brown as he discusses how clubs are integrating release velocity data across both first-team and academy levels. https://lnkd.in/g6xJeiT3

I spy with my little eye, something beginning with A. Given up? it was clearly Aston Villa Football Club wearing Playermaker in their recent pre-season game against Walsall Football Club Limited! We are in such a key period where games are just starting, the intensity is rising and we want to make sure we can bring everyone up to full speed at around about the same time. For clubs with a high number of players who have spent the summer playing international football, this becomes even more difficult. Therefore it is key to track players not just in training, but also in matches. Yes we want physical loads monitored so players are brought upto full fitness in the correct manner, but also ensuring that we get players similar technical outputs. We want to make sure players are interacting with the ball enough to get themselves comfortable again and fully ready for the season, but not so much that we are stressing the joints and muscles too early. It's a delicate balance that, to be big headed, we excel at helping clubs find. Looking forward to seeing more clubs utilise us over the pre-season and into the new season! #Football #soccer #preseason #sportscience

It's often assumed that release velocity in training matches that in games. However, the recent paper by George Littlemore explores the differences in release velocity between training sessions and actual matches.
