Floorball goaltending movements during a game: A quantitative observational study
Floorball goalkeepers perform a high number of movements and spend a substantial amount of the match time on their knees. There is no existing research on how these game aspects may impact load as well as physical needs, emphasizing the need for further research. Knowledge from the study lays the groundwork for further studies and may be used when developing future preventive training programme and rehabilitation.
