TI  - Carbohydrate gel ingestion significantly improves the intermittent endurance 
      capacity, but not sprint performance, of adolescent team games players during a 
      simulated team games protocol.

AB  - The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of ingesting a 
      carbohydrate (CHO) gel on the intermittent endurance capacity and sprint 
      performance of adolescent team games players. Eleven participants [mean age 13.5 
      +/- 0.7 years, height 1.72 +/- 0.08 m, body mass (BM) 62.1 +/- 9.4 kg] performed two 
      trials separated by 3-7 days. In each trial, they completed four 15 min periods 
      of part A of the Loughborough Intermittent Shuttle Test (LIST), followed by an 
      intermittent run to exhaustion (part B). In the 5 min pre-exercise, participants 
      consumed 0.818 mL kg(-1) BM of a CHO or a non-CHO placebo gel, and a further 
      0.327 mL kg(-1) BM every 15 min during part A of the LIST (38.0 +/- 5.5 g CHO h(-1) 
      in the CHO trial). Intermittent endurance capacity was increased by 21.1% during 
      part B when the CHO gel was ingested (4.6 +/- 2.0 vs. 3.8 +/- 2.4 min, P < 0.05, r = 
      0.67), with distance covered in part B significantly greater in the CHO trial 
      (787 +/- 319 vs. 669 +/- 424 m, P < 0.05, r = 0.57). Gel ingestion did not 
      significantly influence mean 15 m sprint time (P = 0.34), peak sprint time (P = 
      0.81), or heart rate (P = 0.66). Ingestion of a CHO gel significantly increases 
      the intermittent endurance capacity of adolescent team games players during a 
      simulated team games protocol.
