Womens Rugby League: Identifying speed zones

Cloe Cummins; Simon Buxton; Glen Charlton; David Paul; Aron Murphy

Abstract

Introduction: The paucity of research on the locomotor demands of women's rugby league is further confounded by inconsistencies in the classification of velocity zones used to contextualise the total distance covered. Indeed within literature the reported velocity zones have been translated from those used in men's rugby league or modelled from the physiologically based velocity zones of other female football codes. The aim of this study was to use a data-driven approach to identify velocity zone thresholds for female rugby league players.
