SPEED 
Of the two key basic metrics (Distance and Speed), speed is the main cause of injury in team sport training.
 
Speed is associated with intensity of effort and it is excessive intensity (the interaction b/w distance and speed) that is the key determinant of athlete adaptation but also over training and resultant injury.
 
But, it is the ability to be able to perform at high speed through a full game that is a key indicator of success for any athlete.
 
GPSports products have been specifically designed to be able to easily and accurately track an athlete’s speed profile during any skill, drill or training session. It is the ongoing monitoring of this key metric (and associated flagging of risk) that will maximize player performance whilst minimizing soft tissue injury.
 
Clients whom have a strong understanding of this metric and how to manage speed training typically have the lowest injury rates in their respective leagues.
