“…El tamaño del campo, es una variable situacional que, si bien ha sido analizada anteriormente por diferentes autores en formatos de juegos reducidos (JRs), no lo ha sido en terrenos de juego oficiales (Casamichana & Castellano, 2010;Kelly & Drust, 2009;Köklü, Albayrak, Keysan, Alemdaroğlu, & Dellal, 2013). En este sentido, parece existir cierta coincidencia en los resultados obtenidos por las diferentes investigaciones, en las que un incremento del terreno de juego tenía como consecuencia un aumento en las distancias totales cubiertas por los jugadores (Aguiar, Botelho, Lago, Maças, & Sampaio, 2012;Casamichana & Castellano, 2010;Malone, Solan, & Collins, 2016;Owen, Twist, & Ford, 2004;Williams & Owen, 2007).…”

El propósito de este estudio fue conocer la influencia de la variable tamaño del campo en el comportamiento físico de equipos de fútbol profesionales utilizando el sistema de seguimiento semiautomático (TRACAB®). Los 22 equipos de la Liga Adelante tomaron parte del estudio durante la temporada 2013/2014. La variable analizada fue tamaño del campo, estableciendo 2 tamaños en base a la mediana (grande > 7140 m2 ; y pequeño < 7140 m2 ). El rendimiento de los equipos fue valorado tomando en consideración la distancia total recorrida y la distancia cubierta a diferentes rangos de velocidad: parado, caminando, trotando, corriendo y esprintando. Los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas (p<0,05) entre ambos campos, siendo en el campo grande en el que los equipos mostraron una mayor distancia recorrida frente al campo pequeño (11.905 ± 463 m vs. 11.722 ± 631 m; d=0,32), al igual que en el rango de parado (d=0,23) y corriendo (d=0,33), siendo en el campo pequeño donde los equipos recorrieron una mayor distancia en el rango de caminado (d=0,23). De estos resultados podemos concluir que la variable situacional tamaño del campo tiene una alta influencia en el comportamiento físico de los equipos. Esta información podría ser de gran ayuda para los técnicos de cara a planificar demandas contextuales o para aplicar estrategias específicas de recuperación después del partido

“…lower running distance with more accelerations/decelerations in sized-reduced games), game-based trials with smaller pitch areas and number of players have been reported to induce greater play intensity and number of short-term activities including spurts, changes of directions and stoppages (Malone et al, 2016;Rebelo et al, 2016a). In contrast, FM have been shown to produce greater player displacements with minimal accelerations and decelerations (David Casamichana et al, 2012).…”

“…However, mean values for distance covered and duration of sprints were lower when the number of players was reduced in SSG, likely due to the inability to maintain the relative pitch area per player (Fradua et al, 2013). Therefore, to improve the replication of soccer activity patterns during training routines, the use of large-sided games (LSG) may be a novel and important means to enhance training stimuli (Malone, Solan, & Collins, 2016) . LSG involve a reduced number of players combined with a larger pitch area to maintain the relative pitch area per player (Malone et al, 2016).…”

“…Based on previous reports (Malone et al, 2016;Rebelo, Silva, Rago, Barreira, & Krustrup, 2016a) our hypothesis was that LSG, compared to SSG, would elicit more accurate movement patterns to those during a competitive, friendly match.…”

LSG involve a reduced number of players combined with a larger pitch area to maintain the relative pitch area per player (Malone et al, 2016). In theory, the LSG allows a higher involvement of players and thus, appropriate intensity with a greater playing space to produce high-intensity displacement (Rebelo, Silva, Rago, Barreira, & Krustrup, 2016b).…”

Purpose Evidence suggests low energy availability (LEA) is prevalent in elite male Gaelic football (GF) players. Previous research in male and female team sports found LEA may negatively impact endocrine function. The aim of this study was to examine the seasonal variations in energy availability (EA) and its associations with salivary measures in elite male GF players across the competitive season. Methods Energy availability was assessed using field-based methods in conjunction with salivary testosterone (s-T), cortisol (s-C) and immunoglobin A (s-IgA) concentrations at pre-season (PRE), in-season (IN) and post-season (POST). Results 38% reported LEA at PRE, 33% at IN, and 28.5% at POST. s-C, s-T and s-IgA levels were within normal ranges at PRE, IN and POST. Salivary cortisol declined significantly from PRE to IN, remaining reduced at POST. Salivary testosterone decreased significantly from PRE to IN but was significantly elevated at POST compared to IN. Salivary IgA was significantly greater at POST than IN. No significant associations were found between s-C or s-T and EA at any time point. Pre-season s-IgA exhibited a significant inverse association with PRE EA. Decreased s-IgA flow rate and s-IgA secretion rate were significantly associated with decreased EA at PRE. Reduced carbohydrate (CHO) intake was also associated with decreased s-IgA secretion rate at PRE. Conclusion This study suggests that LEA is prevalent in elite male GF players, but is not associated with s-C or s-T. However, EA is associated with s-IgA which may impact the immune system. Therefore, education and interventions surrounding the prevalence and associations of EA should be implemented in this population.
