Bitcademy is a new concept funded by impact investors with a passion for football using various cryptocurrencies. The main components of the concept are:
These devices will include:
• Heart rate monitors,
• Accelerometers,
• Magnetometers,
• Sleep wearable, and
• Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking systems.
Data will be gathered for every single training session and match. Such data will then be analyzed using magnitude-based interpretations, to track each player’s physical, technical, and tactical progress.
In addition, physical performance testing will be conducted on a quarterly basis. As the majority of players will be experiencing physical maturation throughout their time at Bitcademy, it will be of principal importance to track their Peak Height Velocity (PHV).
Peak Height Velocity refers to the period where the maximum rate of growth occurs during puberty.
How, then can PHV be measured?
The most simple and non-intrusive method for predicting PHV is by tracking the following player information:
1) Gender
2) Date of Birth
3) Date of Measurement
4) Standing Height (cm)
5) Sitting Height (cm)
6) Weight (kg)
This information is then inputted into a PHV calculator to estimate when the player will experience their maximum rate of growth.
Peak Height Velocity (PHV) is a very important characteristic that requires close monitoring, as research has shown that adolescents experiencing their growth spurt are at a greater likelihood of injury due to the biological changes occurring within their body at that time. During this period of body development, an injury can be a terminator to the potential football career of a Bitcademy player.
PLAYER AGE DEFINITION
The age of a player is defined in two ways namely:
• Chronological Age: The actual age of a person as determined by their birth date.
• Biological Age: The physical maturation of an individual as compared to their
chronological peers.
During puberty, individuals physically mature at different stages. This is why you might look at a U-17 team, and some players might look either undersized, or oversized for their respective chronological age. During the adolescent period there can be a considerable difference between a player’s chronological age, and their biological age.
PHV SIGNIFICANCE
The use of PHV will allow football coaches and fitness coaches to make changes to player load, and other modifications to physical preparation, to dramatically reduce the likelihood of injury potential.
Besides injury risk extenuation, the use of PHV will allow coaches to make cognizant choices when it comes to player development.
EXPECTED RESULTS
The end result is a win for both the player and investor, as it increases the likelihood that the player will obtain a professional contract. Overall, Bitcademy is aiming to revolutionize player development using micro-technology, and proven sports science research. Bitacdemy will incorporate algorithms and predictive models to ensure that every player in Bitcademy will have the maximum capacity for success, while also ensuring full data transparency to investors.
