Does running performance in small-sided games have a relation with postural control in youth soccer players? by Caglar Edıs, Faik Vural, Hikmet Vurgun

“…The main findings of our study showed a significant relationship between the running speeds of 0-6 km · h-1, 6-10 km · h-1 and 10-16 km · h-1 which can be defined as the velocities used in acceleration and direction changes and the postural parameters of CoPdap, CoPdvel,CoPndvel and CoPndvar (r-values ranging from 0.503 to 0.639) levels in 2vs2 and 3vs3 games.In conclusion, when improvement of postural control, which is a variable that can lead to an increase in athletes’ competing performances, is desired, combining practices that are designed to work out postural control parameters separately with football specific exercises (combined training) in a single training session would make significant contributions to competing performances of athletes.…”
