Baseline body composition and physical fitness measures are strongly correlated with match running demands during a congested futsal match period.
Performance variability across congested futsal matches warrants load monitoring; leaves open whether baseline fitness predicts demands in prospective studies.
< 0.05). In conclusion, the baseline body composition and the overall physical fitness measures may be essential factors in match running demands during a congested futsal match period. Futsal players who perform better in the 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test can sustain a greater volume of high-intensity accelerations during a congested period.

González-Férnandez et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Healthy futsal players (n=11). Congested-weeks training camp (5 matches) vs. Within-subjects comparison across matches was evaluated on Sprint performance across five matches (η2 = 0.21, p=0.04). During an 11-day congested futsal training camp, significant differences were observed in sprint, acceleration, and deceleration performance across five matches.
