CEU SAN PABLO UNIVERSITY
PROOF OF CONCEPT

RC Deportivo has carried out a biomechanical assessment of the sprint of the football players of the youth football teams and Deportivo Abanca in collaboration with the Official Master’s Degree in Sports Biomechanics of the CEU San Pablo University in Madrid. The biomechanical evaluation focused on identifying possible errors in the sprint technique and determining an action plan to improve efficiency and optimize the players’ performance.
In addition, the objective of the biomechanical assessment is also to reduce the risk factors for injury in football players. By detecting errors in running mechanics, it is possible to work consistently to correct them and improve the players’ sprint technique.
The collaboration between RC Deportivo and the Official Master’s Degree in Sports Biomechanics of the CEU San Pablo University will allow the players to reach their maximum potential and performance on the playing field, while maintaining a special focus on injury prevention.
