[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are great tests overall, the 40, the 2 mile, beep, shuttle, etc. if your program ISN’T testing, that’s a problems. Even back in the 90’s we had pre-season / start of season fitness testing. We did a timed 10 mile run…based on the logic that soccer players run up to 10 miles in a single match…so glad sports science and soccer sports science specifically has moved on from the “marathon” testing to things much more useful to measure.[/quote] Youth soccer players do not run up to ten miles in a single match. Four or five tops. But agree that if you have a club not checking in on fitness at the beginning, you're wasting your money. [/quote]
