Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed match-play data from professional male football over two seasons to understand how competition level (English Championship vs. League One) and playing position affect peak running speeds.
- Results indicated that League One matches showcased higher peak running speeds compared to Championship matches, and that playing positions greatly influenced these speeds, particularly highlighting the faster speeds of wide midfielders compared to forwards and defenders.
- The findings suggest that both league division and position-specific roles significantly impact the physical performance of players, with implications for training regimens in professional football.
