Sport science is the application of scientific principles and techniques with the aim of improving sporting performance.
We at Queen's Park incorporate physiology, psychology, motor control and biomechanics as well as nutrition and diet, flexibility, hydration, strength and conditioning, proper warm-up and downs into our training schedules.
Our aim is to provide the best possible support environment for players to develop. Sports science plays a central role in strength, power flexibility in players along with good eating and resting habits.
Nutrition can play a pivotal role in supporting the training and competition demands of any elite footballer. Food alone will not make you pass the ball faster, but the right diet is absolutely central in supporting training. Click here to read the more about diet and nutritian.
Flexibility refers to the ability to move joints through their entire range of motion. Flexibility can be genetic, but it can also be developed by stretching. Flexibility is an important component of fitness. Click here to read more about flexibility.
Proper hydration is especially important during exercise. Adequate fluid intake for footballers is essential to performance and safety. The more intensely you exercise, the more important it is to drink the right kind of fluids. Click here to read more about hydration.
Strength and Conditioning is the physical development of players for elite sport performance. The aim is to help players to become faster, stronger and more flexible so they perform better and remain injury free. Click here to read more about strength and conditioning.
A proper warm up can increase the blood flow to the working muscle which results in decreased muscle stiffness, less risk of injury and improved performance. Click here to read the more about warm up and cool down.
