The Measurement of Sporting Performance Using Mobile Physiological Monitoring Technology The Measurement of Sporting Performance using Mobile Physiological Monitoring Technology James Alexander Johnstone BA (Hons), PGCE, MSc Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Hertfordshire January 2014 1 Abstract Coaches are constantly seeking more ecologically valid and reliable data to improve professional sporting performance. Using unobtrusive, valid and reliable mobile physiological monitoring devices may assist in achieving this aim. For example, there is limited information regarding professional fast bowlers in cricket and understanding this role during competitive in-match scenarios rather than in simulated bowling events could enhance coaching and physical conditioning practices. The Bioharness TM is a mobile monitoring device and assesses 5 variables (Heart rate [HR], Breathing frequency [BF], Accelerometry [ACC], Skin temperature [ST] and Posture [P]) simultaneously. Therefore, the aims of this research were to assess the effectiveness of the Bioharness TM mobile monitoring device during professional sporting performance using fast bowlers in cricket and this was to be achieved in five research studies. Study 1 presented the physiological profile of professional cricketers reporting fitness data with other comparable professional athletes, with a specific interest in fast bowlers who were to be the focus of this work. The 2nd and 3rd study assessed the reliability and validity of the Bioharness TM through controlled laboratory based assessment. For validity, strong relationships (r = .89 to .99, P < .01) were reported for HR, BF, ACC and P. Limits of Agreement reported HR (-3 ± 32 beat.min -1), BF (-3.5 ± 43.7 br.min -1) and P (0.2 ± 2.6 o). ST established moderate relationships (-0.61 ± 1.98 oC; r =.76, P <.01). Reliability between subject data reported low Coefficient of Variation (CV) and strong correlations for ACC and P (CV < 7.6%; r = .99, P <.01). HR and BF (CV ~ 19.4%; r ~.70, P <.01) and ST (CV 3.7%; r = .61, P < .01), present more variable data. Intra and inter device data presented strong relationships (r > .89, P < .01, CV < 10.1%) for HR, ACC, P and ST. BF produced weaker data (r < .72, CV < 17.4%). Study 4 assessed reliability and validity of the Bioharness TM in a field based environment using an intermittent protocol. Precision of measurement reported good relationships ( r = .61 to .67, P < .01) and large Limits of Agreement for HR (> 79.2 beat.min -1) and BF (> -1 54.7 br.min ). ACC presented excellent precision ( r = .94, P < .01). Results for HR ( r = ~ .91, P < .01: CV <7.6%) and ACC (r > .97, P < .01; CV < 14.7%) suggested these variables are reliable in the field environment. BF presented more variable data ( r = .46 - .61, P < .01; CV < 23.7%). In all studies, as velocity of movement increased (> 10 km.h -1) variables became more erroneous. HR and ACC were deemed as valid and reliable to be assessed during in-match sporting performance in study 5. This final study sought to utilise and assess the Bioharness TM device within professional cricket, assessing physiological responses of fast-medium bowlers within a competitive sporting environment, collected over three summer seasons. The Bioharness TM presented different physiological profiles for One Day (OD) and Multi Day (MD) cricket with higher mean HR (142 vs 137 beats.min -1, P < .05) and ACC (Peak acceleration (PkA) 227.6 vs 214.9 ct.episode -1, P < .01) values in the shorter match format. Differences in data for the varying match states of bowling (HR, 142 vs 137 beats.min -1, PkA 234.1 vs 226.6 ct.episode -1), between over (HR, 129 vs 120beats.min -1, PkA 136.4 vs 126.5 ct.episode -1) and fielding (115 vs 106 beats.min -1, PkA 1349.9 vs 356.1 ct.episode - 1) were reported across OD and MD cricket. Therefore, this information suggests to the coach that the training regimes for fast bowlers should be specific for the different demands specific to the format of the game employed. Relationships between in-match Bioharness TM data and bowling performance were not clearly established due to the complexities of uncontrollable variables within competitive cricket. In conclusion, the Bioharness TM has demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability in the laboratory and the field setting for all variables (Heart rate, Breathing frequency, Accelerometry, Skin temperature and Posture) but with limitations for heart rate and breathing frequency at the more extreme levels of performance. Furthermore, taking these limitations into account it has successfully been utilised to assess performance and provide further insight into the physiological demands in the professional sport setting. Therefore, this work suggests that coaches and exercise scientists working together should seek to utilise new mobile monitoring technology to access unique insights in to sporting performance which may be unobtainable in the laboratory or a simulated field based event . ii Key words Cricket, Bioharness TM , Fast-medium bowling, Reliability, Validity, Professional sport, Multi-variable, Heart rate, Accelerometry iii Acknowledgements This has been a long journey to submission which would not have been possible without the support and guidance of many family, friends and colleagues.

Entered December 10, 1902, at Haverford, Pa., as Second Class Matter under Act of Congress of July 16, 1894 This is the first number of Volume IX of the Haver- ford College Bulletin. Hitherto it has been issued four or five times a year and has included the regular publi- cations of the College. We shall add to this three or four leaflets, of which this is the first, alternating with the larger issues. These are intended to give from an official source the more important College news and ideas. All of these eight numbers will be sent free to all mem- bers of the Haverford Union. This organization it is hoped will accomplish the purpose of bringing into closer association the various elements of College life—faculty, alumni, undergraduates. The building, thanks to the gen- erosity of Alfred Percival Smith, '84, is now completed and by the aid of Frederic H. Strawbridge, '87, and other friends is largely furnished. Its public opening was on Commencement Day. on the tenth of last June, when the alumni meeting was held there. The membership now amounts to about 250, a satisfactory beginning.

The museum’s guest register reveals that in a year’s time, visitors come from all fifty Estates and from sixty to seventy foreign countries. Many wonder why the Hall of Fame is located in this small northeast Ohio city. Often, museums are built in locations that have historical significance to their subject matter. The Pro Football Hall of Fame is no exception. Canton’s ties to pro football began long before the Hall of Fame was built in 1963. On September 17, 1920, a meeting was held in an automobile showroom in downtown Canton. It was at this time that the American Professional Football Association was formed. Two years later, the league changed its name to the National Football League. Today, fans follow teams like the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, and the Miami Dolphins. But, in 1920, none of those teams existed.
