Presentation / Conference Contribution
MAUGHAN, P., BURGESS, K. and MACFARLANE, N. 2025. Monitoring load experienced by players during the transition from academy to professional soccer. Presented at the 2025 World congress in science and soccer (WCSS 2025), 17-20 June 2025, Glasgow, UK.

This study investigates the load experienced by players transitioning from academy to professional soccer and if subjective measures of training load able to give useful insights into training volumes and training intensity.

Comparison of match running demands between U18, reserve and first-team footballers. (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
MAUGHAN, P., COWIE, G., MACFARLANE, N., SWINTON, P. and BURGESS, K. 2025. Comparison of match running demands between U18, reserve and first-team footballers. Presented at the 2025 World congress in science and soccer (WCSS 2025), 17-20 June 2025, Glasgow, UK.

The aim of this study was to investigate differences in match running demands between first-team, reserve, and U18 footballers. A retrospective, season-long study of 37 male professional footballers was undertaken. Total distance, low-intensity runni...

Development and implementation of an applied professional development module for final year undergraduate students. (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
BURGESS, K.E. and MAUGHAN, P. 2024. Development and implementation of an applied professional development module for final year undergraduate students. Presented at the 1st Staffordshire Centre of Learning and Pedagogic Practice international pedagogic conference (SCoLPP 2024): it's scholarly but it's real: using phenomenon based learning to future-proof effective learning in higher education, 20-21 November 2024, [online event].

This presentation reflects on a new applied professional development module, which aimed to enhance students' professional self-awareness and reflective practice, and to develop specific areas of their professional skills. The module was found to hel... Read More about Development and implementation of an applied professional development module for final year undergraduate students..

Simulating association between training load and injury using the acute: chronic workload ratio and Bayesian methods in youth football. (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
MAUGHAN, P., BURGESS, K.E. and SWINTON, P. 2017. Simulating association between training load and injury using the acute: chronic workload ratio and Bayesian methods in youth football. Presented at the 2017 UK Strength and Conditioning Association annual conference (UKSCA 2017), 4-6 August 2017, Leicester, UK.

Previous research has examined the relationship between relative workload and injury, where acute training load is expressed in relation to chronic training load using simple ratio scaling or non-linear models including the exponentially weighted mov...
