A171: An Applied Study of Smart Sports to Enable Youth Soccer Training

Smart sports technology can improve the technical and tactical level of youth soccer players through a new generation of information technology, combined with the laws of physical and mental development of young people, and through systematic and scientific training methods. This study verifies the effectiveness of smart sports technology in improving the level of youth soccer through application in youth soccer training. Method: recruit 40 adolescents (20 males and 20 females) involved in soccer training, aged 12-16 years (with informed consent of their guardians) for an 8-week period of 90-minute training, 3 times per week. 1. Use of technological monitoring undershirts (GPS trackers, heart rate monitors, and other equipment, weighing approximately 400 grams) to monitor exercise load during training in real time to avoid excessive fatigue. 2. Real-time tracking of players' running position, standing position, etc., through intelligent monitoring and tracking equipment in the intelligent soccer field, generating real-time data through AI algorithms to help the coaching team formulate targeted training programs. 3. Use intelligent soccer to collect real-time data of players' touching parts, passing, shooting, etc., to generate personalized training data and real-time feedback to the coaching team to improve the athletes' deficiencies. Through the use of intelligent sports technology, the motivation of athletes can be improved; real-time feedback and personalized reports provided by AI algorithms can help the coaching team to improve the technical and tactical level of athletes, enhance training programs, and improve training results; real-time physiological data of athletes obtained through the use of monitoring devices can effectively ensure sports safety. The real-time feedback data obtained through the intervention of smart sports technology in training can improve the rationality of athletes' running routes, touching parts of the ball, and the way of force generation when hitting the ball, and improve the training effect, which has certain practical significance. However, because this study relies heavily on the technical equipment of smart sports, it has a high cost and may not be able to be replicated on a larger scale, so the next step is to explore how to reduce cost and increase efficiency.
