Translating novel collective behaviour measures to concepts and principles of play as understood by football coaches. (2024)
Journal Article
CORSIE, M., MALONE, M. and SWINTON, P.A. 2024. Translating novel collective behaviour measures to concepts and principles of play as understood by football coaches. International journal of sports science and coaching [online], Online First. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/17479541241238991

A range of innovative performance analysis metrics have been applied in recent years to investigate aspects of football using tempo-spatial and network analyses. These approaches have gained traction within some professional teams to quantify and ass...

Collective behaviour monitoring in football using spatial temporal and network analysis: application and evaluations. (2022)
Thesis
CORSIE, M.R. 2022. Collective behaviour monitoring in football using spatial temporal and network analysis: application and evaluations. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1880207

Analysis is an important part of understanding and exploiting performance of football teams. Traditional approaches of analysis have centred around events that may not fully incorporate the highly dynamic nature of matches. To circumvent this weaknes...

Reliability of spatial-temporal metrics used to assess collective behaviours in football: an in-silico experiment. (2022)
Journal Article
CORSIE, M. and SWINTON, P.A. 2023. Reliability of spatial-temporal metrics used to assess collective behaviours in football: an in-silico experiment. Science and medicine in football [online], 7(3), pages 297-305. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1080/24733938.2022.2100460

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability of spatial-temporal measurements applied within collective behaviour research in football. In-silico experiments were conducted introducing positional errors (0.5, 2 and 4 m) representative...

The effect of bio-banding on academy soccer player passing networks: implications of relative pitch size. (2021)
Journal Article
TOWLSON, C., ABT, G., BARRETT, S., CUMMING, S., HUNTER, F., HAMILTON, A., LOWTHORPE, A., GONCALVES, B., CORSIE, M. and SWINTON, P. 2021. The effect of bio-banding on academy soccer player passing networks: implications of relative pitch size. Plos one [online], 16(12), article e0260867. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0260867

The primary aims of this study were to examine the effects of bio-banding players on passing networks created during 4v4 small-sided games (SSGs), while also examining the interaction of pitch size using passing network analysis compared to a coach-b...
