How fast and practice time how does that affect gametime?
What is the optimal practice time to reach to
Chapter 1 Introduction (5 pages)
Wearable tech
Context When, How long, purp. Include what the week looks like for players
Describe quantity of data that you have.
The question is, what use it?
Statement of the Problem
RQ Does tracking performance during practice time using wearable tech impact performance during game time?
Is there a relationship between wide receiver practice / speed and game time / speed?
Select the week day to be used.
Select a Game (s)
Select Practices
For player who quit, look at average with and without the player. Just exclude.
If so, what is the optimal amount of time for wide-receiver practice and play according to the wearable tech data?
Justification
You do not have a comparison of data before the vest, so you are establishing a foundation for future performance studies. You are the pioneer.
Limitations
Things you cannot control
Things that you cannot claim – example that this wearable tech will change lives, etc.
Small N
Delimitations
You are only studying wide receivers
You are pooling the numbers in aggregated (not comparing individuals)
Only one type of tech.
Chapter 2 Literature review (10 sources or more) 10 pages?
Introduction
History of evolution of of Practice and Performance training in football how has this question of minutes of practice v. performance been tracked? 1970, 80, 90, 2000, 2010 to present
History of evolution Prac and Perf for wide receivers? 1970, 80, 90, 2000, 2010 to present
Bridge from old practices to new ones with wearable tech.
Present What is this wearable tech? History? Claims
What to Kins have to say? Sports Psychology (placebo effect?)
