The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of playing surface on physiological and
performance responses during and in the 48 h after simulated soccer match play. Blood …

Purpose: Recent studies have shown that soccer players' responses are similar on natural
grass (NG) and artificial turf (AT), but they did not control the mechanical properties of these …

In spite of the increased acceptance of artificial turf in football, few studies have investigated
if matches are altered by the type of surface used and no research has compared …

This study aimed to compare the recovery kinetics of physical performance and subjective
ratings in response to a soccer-specific exercise simulation on natural grass and artificial …

This study aimed to analyze the influence of the playing surface on movement pattern,
physical loading, perceived exertion, and fatigue development during small-sided …

Background The use of sand has been suggested as fitness-enhancing surface in field-
based team sports. However, concerns have arisen in regard whether physical responses …

Purpose: The effect of playing surface on physical performance during a repeated-sprint
ability (RSA) test and the mechanisms for any potential playing-surface-dependent effects …

The aim of this research was to evaluate the influence of game surface and pitch size on the
physiological responses, jump performance and perceptions of sub-elite female soccer …

Existing procedures for the simulation of soccer match play fail to incorporate
multidirectional and repeated-sprint activities, even though these movements are …

This study aims to analyse the effect of different pitch surface, ie artificial turf (AT), natural turf
(NT) and dirt field (DF) on running activity and technical demands of young soccer players …
