“…Premature truncation of sleep due to early morning awakenings is suggested to restrict brain activity required for athletic skill acquisition and learning potential (Walker and Stickgold, 2005). An increase in reaction time and reduction in attention has also been reported in handball goalkeepers following acute partial sleep deprivation of 3-4 hours, when the sleep loss was either at the beginning or end of nocturnal sleep (Jarraya et al, 2012). Additionally, research shows an increased risk of injury when adolescent athletes obtain less than 8 hours of sleep per night (Milewski et al, 2012(Milewski et al, , 2014.…”

Adolescents are predisposed to poorer quality of sleep and experience shortened sleep durations, with these trends being more pronounced amongst Asians. Even though sleep is crucial for athletic recovery, there is a dearth of literature on the sleep patterns of Asian adolescent athletes. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different intensities of sports training on sleep patterns in adolescent athletes, and to describe novel sleep data and daytime sleepiness amongst Asian adolescents who were high-level athletes. Those athletes (age 14.8 ± 0.9 years) in higher-intensity sports showed significantly more deep sleep, less light sleep and wake time after sleep onset. Actigraphically determined bedtimes and waketimes were significantly delayed on weekends, when mean total sleep time was also significantly longer. There was a large effect for an increased daytime sleepiness in high-intensity sport athletes. These findings highlight the phenomenon of social jet lag in Asian adolescent student-athletes.

“…In addition, skill acquisition and complex motor learning are crucial to achieve elite status in sport,87 both critical elements to the development of sporting talent. As improvements in these factors are enhanced following requisite durations of sleep due to ‘offline’ learning,88 89 the chronic premature truncation of optimal sleep durations may hinder a youth athlete's potential 90…”

Sport talent identification and development (TI and TD) in youth continues to attract strong interest among coaches, sport scientists and sport administrators. TI for sport in youth with the anticipation of future elite level sport achievement is both an art and a science, and is strongly influenced by within athlete and extraneous-to-athlete factors (ecosystem of support or the lack of). The returns from investment on current TI and TD models of sport in youth are subpar in that few continue in the sport to achieve podium positions at the elite sport level in adulthood. Why, where and how one succeeds in sport, and what that success means to the athlete and stakeholders are dependent on the culture and context of the country. We advocate harnessing the power of sport to help in youth development, to be holistic in its nurturance, to allow for individual idiosyncratic expressions of the athletes, to provide for talent transfer across sport, and to facilitate key stakeholders to 'join' hands to work for the common interest and understanding for as many youth and adults so as to provide them with opportunities through support and coaching to compete at the different levels of competition in sport. Governments, policy makers and administrators of sport must decide, within their specific circumstances, if TI and TD in sport in youth is serving a meaningful purpose and is a viable return on investment; in short, is it mission possible or is it… a quest for the Holy Grail for a podium finish in elite level sport competition?

“…Finally, previous research has shown that circadian rhythm, and specifically the sleep-wake cycle, is another important factor that influences individual performance on sensory, motor, reaction time, time estimation, and memory tasks (Carrier & Monk, 2000, for a review; Matchock & Mordkoff, 2007;Breimhorst, Falkenstein, Marks, & Griefahn, 2008;Jarraya, Jarraya, Chtourou, Souissi, & Chamari, 2013). In healthy adults who typically sleep from 23:00 to 7:00, peak cognitive performance is often observed during 16:00-22:00 while the lowest levels of performance are reported between 7:00 and 10:00 (Matchock, 2010;Valdez, Ramírez, & García, 2012); however, caffeine and food consumption can alter normal biological rhythms (Valdez et al, 2012).…”

The ability to quickly detect and respond to visual stimuli in the environment is critical to many human activities. While such perceptual and visual-motor skills are important in a myriad of contexts, considerable variability exists between individuals in these abilities. To better understand the sources of this variability, we assessed perceptual and visual-motor skills in a large sample of 230 healthy individuals via the Nike SPARQ Sensory Station, and compared variability in their behavioral performance to demographic, state, sleep and consumption characteristics. Dimension reduction and regression analyses indicated three underlying factors: Visual-Motor Control, Visual Sensitivity, and Eye Quickness, which accounted for roughly half of the overall population variance in performance on this battery. Inter-individual variability in Visual-Motor Control was correlated with gender and circadian patters such that performance on this factor was better for males and for those who had been awake for a longer period of time before assessment. The current findings indicate that abilities involving coordinated hand movements in response to stimuli are subject to greater individual variability, while visual sensitivity and occulomotor control are largely stable across individuals.
