• The Youth Physical Development Model: A New Approach to Long-Term Athletic Development (2012, background): “The rapid gains in limb length during the adolescent growth spurt can lead to decrements in motor control performance, a concept commonly referred to as ‘‘adolescent awkwardness’’ (87).”
• Identifying technical, physiological, tactical and psychological characteristics that contribute to career progression in soccer (2016, background): “Previous research has shown that the fastest development in physiological capacities usually occurs at the same time as the maximal height spurt at the age of around 14 years.(23) Findings of our study highlight the importance of”
• Biological maturation of youth athletes: assessment and implications (2015, positive): “players, but estimated gains maintained a plateau after PHV for several capacities.[54] Most studies of youth athletes have focused on characteristics related to growth, maturation, functional capacities and technical skills, though data vary by sport.”
