Objective: To establish normative ranges in common performance tests for professional women’s club soccer. Setting:1st division professional women’s soccer club in the United States
Participants: Twenty-eight healthy professional women’s soccer players (Age: 27.8 ± 5.1 years; Body Mass: 66.2 ± 6.7 kg). Main Outcome Measures: Countermovement Jump, Isometric Mid-Thigh Pull, and Nordic Hamstring Curl tests were performed to obtain lower body compound strength, power, and eccentric hamstring strength. Paired-samples t tests were used to determine between-limbs differences for each outcome measure. Results: Jump height had a mean of 28.9 ± 4.2 cm. Peak vertical force (IMTP) had a mean of 1869 ± 262N, with relative peak vertical force (21.6 ± 2.04 N/kg). Nordic hamstring results included L max force (310.0 ± 66.4 N) and R max force (298.9 ± 50.2 N). Conclusion: These metrics help professionals (athletic trainers, physical therapists, sports scientists, and physicians) identify female soccer players whose performance is either inside or outside normative data. |
