Training participation and team performance

Research results clearly show that a high level of training participation is closely linked to a team's performance in league operations. For example, a study by Fransen et al. (2015) found that teams with training participation of over 90% won games significantly more often than teams with a lower participation rate. These results show that consistent participation in training is a decisive factor for the success of a soccer team.

Team chemistry and collaboration

High training participation also contributes to the development of strong team chemistry and collaboration. When players participate in training regularly, they have more opportunities to get to know each other, interact with each other, and build trust. This results in improved communication on the pitch, better communication, and more effective collaboration between team members.

Injury prevention and fitness

Another important aspect of high training participation is preventing injuries and promoting players' fitness. Through regular training, players can improve their physical fitness, reduce their vulnerability to injuries and improve their performance. It also enables coaches to create individual training plans and to specifically support or protect players as needed in order to prevent overloads and injuries.

‍

Motivation and team spirit

A high level of training participation can also strengthen a team's motivation and team spirit. When players participate in training regularly, they feel part of the team and are more motivated to do their best. This creates a positive atmosphere in the team, in which players support and motivate each other and work together towards a common goal.

conclusion

Overall, it is clear that high training participation is a decisive success factor for soccer teams in league operations. Through regular training, teams can improve their performance, strengthen team chemistry, prevent injuries and increase players' motivation. Coaches should therefore ensure that all players participate in training regularly and emphasize the importance of a high level of training presence.
