Athlete-reported outcome measures (AROMs; e.g. fatigue, stress, readiness, recovery, sleep quality) are commonly implemented in team sports to monitor the athlete status.

Considering the importance of key match-related statistics for success in team sports, this review suggests that monitoring pre-competitive AROMs has potential to provide valuable information to coaches. However, it is indispensable to validate AROMs questionnaires and to uniform data collection and statistical procedures before substantiated indications to practitioners can be made.

Abstract

Athlete-reported outcome measures (AROMs; e.g. fatigue, stress, readiness, recovery, sleep quality) are commonly implemented in team sports to monitor the athlete status. However, the relationship between AROMs and match performance indicators is unclear, and warrants further investigation. This systematic review examined the relationship between pre-competitive AROMs and subsequent match performances of team sport athletes. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, three (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) databases were systematically searched to retrieve studies investigating the effects or association of AROMs and match: i) technical-tactical performance (match-related statistics), ii) physical performance, iii) physiological and iv) perceptual demands, and v) other measures of performance in adult team sport athletes. Quality assessment of included studies was performed using a modified Black and Downs checklist. Fifteen articles representing 289 team sport athletes were included. Mean quality of included studies was 7.6 ± 1.0 (out of 11). Across the included studies, 22 AROMs parameters were used, and 16 different statistical approaches were identified. 11 out of 15 studies used non-validated AROMs. Overall, associations or effects of AROMs were found consistently for match-related statistics (7/9 studies), while results were unclear for physical performances (3/7 studies), perceptual demands (1/2 studies) or other measures of performance (2/4 studies). Considering the importance of key match-related statistics for success in team sports, this review suggests that monitoring pre-competitive AROMs has potential to provide valuable information to coaches. However, it is indispensable to validate AROMs questionnaires and to uniform data collection and statistical procedures before substantiated indications to practitioners can be made.
