FSI Lab Research

Testing and profiling

This research line aims not only to test the validity and reproducibility of football-specific assessments, but also to profile players across different ages, genders, and competitive levels, with an emphasis on large sample sizes. It also emphasizes aligning performance assessments with the specific movement patterns and demands of football, focusing on movements that reflect real game actions, including trajectories.

Soccer-specific vertical jump (Heading test)

Research on soccer-specific vertical jump assessments designed to replicate heading actions, examining reliability, biomechanical characteristics, and the influence of ball inclusion on jump performance.

Profiling results in practical isometric tests

Research analysing the use of practical isometric strength tests to profile neuromuscular capabilities in football players and understand their relationship with performance and injury risk.
