For many years football coaches have been asking questions that scientific research was specifically designed to answer; "What to eat on the day of a game? how to stay hydrated during match-play? how can I make my players stronger?" and so on and so on. It seems that people who work in football on an everyday basis do not have access to the results of a vast array of scientific research that is designed specifically with one purpose in mind; to improve on field performance. www.scientific-football.com was designed to try and bridge this gap between researcher and coach concerning the application of important scientific findings to real world match-play.
