Maturation should be measured in youth athletes to properly monitor their growth and well-being as athletes.
Bio-banding is the process of grouping athletes based on attributes associated with growth and maturation, rather than chronological age.
The relative age effect is when children born in, or close to, a critical age cut-off period may have a sporting and academic advantage.
Youth practitioners need to know what peak weight velocity is, and how to programme safely for athletes during accelerated periods of growth.
