“…In elite female soccer, small-sided games elicited a higher HR response (> 85 HR max ) when compared to medium-and large-conditioned games [39]. This information could be used by Gaelic game practitioners to manipulate the constraints within a modified game to elicit a specific physiological adaptation whilst continually developing the technical and tactical elements of the game [41]. It has previously been shown in elite female soccer players the average HR during competitive games ranged between 152 and 186 b min −1 , the equivalent ~ 80 and 90% of HR peak [35,38], with no differences across positions.…”

Background Sports science research in elite female Gaelic team sports has increased in recent years, but still a large disparity exists between the volume of studies involving male and female players. As a consequence of this, it is difficult for practitioners to develop an evidence-based approach when working with female players. Main body In this review, we discuss the current research available in elite female Gaelic team sports with focus on seven specific areas including physical and physiological demands, anthropometric and performance characteristics, injury risk, nutritional considerations, and female physiology. There appears to be unique physical demands data in match play across positions in Camogie, however, there is currently no comparative data available in ladies Gaelic football. Similarly, there is no research available on the physiological demands of both elite female Gaelic team sports. According to existing literature, performance characteristics such as speed and power are lower in this population compared to other elite female team sports. Although data is limited, the anthropometric characteristics of elite female Gaelic team sport players appear homogenous with some positional differences observed at a sub-elite level. Previous research has demonstrated a high prevalence of lower limb injuries in female elite Gaelic team sports and the provision of quality, evidence-based strength & conditioning could help mitigate these injury risks. Female Gaelic team sport players have been shown to have poor nutrition knowledge and inadequate intakes of micronutrients. Finally, although menstrual cycle phase and oral contraceptives have been shown to influence performance in other female intermittent sports, to date there has not been any research carried out in elite female Gaelic team sport players. Conclusions It is evident that limited research has been carried out on elite female Gaelic sport players. More up-to-date, high-quality investigations are needed to address the research gaps, which in turn should enable practitioners in the field to apply sound, evidence-based practice/theory when working with this population.

“…A welldeveloped aerobic performance capacity can enable female team sport players to maintain higher performance levels in games (79). It is important that practitioners incorporate physical, technical, and tactical subprinciples to maximize training time availability, especially in an amateur LGF setting (99). The utilization of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) has become a popular training modality to effectively condition female team sport athletes (15,16).…”

“…Game-based training (GBT or SSGs) (Table 3) has gained popularity as a conditioning modality in male Gaelic football (97,100). GBT can enable LGF S&C practitioners to develop physical, technical, and tactical aspect capabilities in a time-efficient manner (99). During this type of conditioning modality, the intensity can be manipulated in many ways, including varying exercise type (tactical constraints, number of players, and specific conditions), field dimensions, and manipulation of time constraints (25).…”

“…The competition schedule (National League or All-Ireland series) is prioritized during this phase. The daily manipulation of training volume and intensity is essential to cater to the dynamic demands of team sports (99). This vertically integrated approach allows for the manipulation of training units to prioritize the development of multiple physical and tactical attributes throughout the training week (99).…”

Ladies Gaelic football (LGF) is a traditional, amateur Gaelic sport played by female athletes. LGF is an invasion-based field sport involving high-intensity, intermittent match play. There is currently a paucity of research on intercounty (elite level) LGF despite a growing interest in the male version of the game. This article aims to provide strength and conditioning recommendations for LGF with particular focus on the intercounty level of play. Recommendations within this article include a needs analysis, female injury epidemiology, physical and physiological demands, female physiology, strength training, and specific conditioning guidelines based on the sport. Additional recommendations include an LGF-specific testing battery, a proposed periodization cycle, and sports-specific speed and agility development.

“…La definición y descripción de conceptos es uno de los matices más relevantes en el desarrollo del diseño y análisis de MdJ. El aspecto más importante es definir un conjunto de principios para definir el comportamiento y proporcionar organización al equipo (Mangan et al, 2021). La claridad de la información también juega un papel relacionado, según Jankowski (2016), cuanto más refinado es el MdJ y mejor se presenta a los jugadores, más claras son las diferentes acciones que deben tomarse.…”

Los modelos de periodización tradicional en fútbol tienen algunas características como la individualización de la carga de entrenamiento y la respuesta de la carga de entrenamiento basada en leyes biológicas. Por ello, la mayoría de estos modelos tienen como objetivo que el deportista alcance un pico de forma en un determinado momento. Sin embargo, en un deporte como el fútbol, los picos de forma tienen que ser constantes durante el transcurso de la temporada. La Periodización Táctica es una metodología de entrenamiento, originalmente desarrollada para el fútbol, que se enfoca principalmente en el Modelo de Juego que un equipo pretende usar en la competición. Ha sido popularizado por entrenadores europeos de éxito y posteriormente se ha propuesto como modelo a seguir para otros deportes como el rugby y el tenis en tiempos más recientes. Hasta la fecha no se ha desarrollado ningún modelo conceptual de periodización del entrenamiento para el fútbol partiendo desde una metodología de entrenamiento-enseñanza-aprendizaje basada en el Modelo de Juego. En el presente trabajo se pretende analizar el concepto teórico de la Periodización Táctica como parte básica de esta forma de entender el proceso de entrenamiento, y al mismo tiempo presentar un ejemplo de Modelo de Juego (MdJ) y las diferentes variables a tener en cuenta en el proceso de entrenamiento y aprendizaje MdJ. Abstract. The traditional periodization models in soccer have some characteristics such as the individualization of the training load and the response of the training load based on biological laws. For this reason, most of these models aim for the athlete to reach a peak of form at a certain moment. However, in a sport like football, the spikes in form have to be constant over the course of the season. Tactical periodization is a training methodology, originally developed for soccer, that focuses primarily on the Game Model that a team intends to use in competition. It has been popularized by successful European coaches and has subsequently been proposed as a game model for other sports such as rugby and tennis in more recent times. To date, no conceptual model of football training periodization has been developed based on a training-teaching-learning methodology based on the Game Model. In the present work it is intended to analyze the theoretical concept of tactical periodization as a basic part of this way of understanding the training process, and at the same time to present an example of a Game Model and the different variables to take into account in the process of training and learning.
