Are we developing players — or selecting maturity?
In my next episode of Beyond the Touchline, I’m joined by @TLexercise to discuss one of the biggest challenges in youth football:
⚽ Early vs. late maturation
🧬 How biological maturity influences selection
🇸🇪 How Sweden is addressing the problem
📈 Creating opportunities for late developers
🧠 Why patience matters in player development

Here's a piece, by me and @Miroandrej in The Philosophers Magazine @philosophersmag on the ethics of sex verification, with passing nods to Aristotle and Mick Jagger.
Sensible comments welcome.
(You are free, too, to make nonsensical ones.)

A giant leap forward for women’s sport. They’ve done the right thing with a strong, clear policy. No equivocation, no tap-dancing, no pretence of “balancing priorities.” Plus, a means to test for eligibility. Those responsible (this time) deserve real congratulations. More later
The International Olympic Committee announces new Policy on the Protection of the Female (Women’s) Category in Olympic Sport.

Ämnet är talangutveckling, multiidrottande osv.

Nytt avsnitt! Könshormoner påverkar både styrka och uthållighet. Därför bör idrottare som har genomgått en manlig pubertet aldrig tävla med kvinnor, menar Tommy Lundberg, docent i fysiologi vid Karolinska institutet.

Great to see @IrishFA follow in the footsteps of Belgium, Denmark and Sweden in pioneering futures programmes for late developers

New IOC president Kirsty Coventry says IOC members now back protecting the female category.
“There was overwhelming support that we should protect the female category. We will set up a working group made up of experts and international federations."

I arbeidet med talentutvikling inn mot landslag og i toppklubber, kan bruk av biologisk alder bidra til bedre belastningsstyring og at flere talenter får sjansen gjennom f. eks Future Team. Vekt og fettprosent er helt uinteressant i denne sammenheng!

Why is the historically-esteemed journal @BJSM_BMJ publishing unequivocally poor research, just because transwomen are included in the studies? It makes no sense. We wrote a response to highlight some of the major flaws in the Alvares et al. (2025) paper.. bjsm.bmj.com/content/early/2…
Tommy Lundberg retweeted
FA Statement: The Supreme Court’s ruling on the 16 April means that we will be changing our policy. Transgender women will no longer be able to play in women’s football in England, and this policy will be implemented from 1 June 2025.
