Accelerometer load as a measure of activity profile in different standards of netball match play.

Purpose: To determine differences in load/min (AU) between standards of netball match play.

Methods: Load/ min (AU) representing accumulated accelerations measured by triaxial accelerometers was recorded during matches of 2 higher- and 2 lower-standard teams (N = 32 players). Differences in load/min (AU) were compared within and between standards for playing position and periods of play.
