Advancements in wearable technologies such as Global Positioning System (GPS) and accelerometers allow coaches and practitioners to gain a better understanding of the physiological and biomechanical demands of a sport. This study documents and describes the movement demands of Canadian university football during training and competition over the course of two seasons. GPS data from sixteen players were collected daily during 29 training sessions and 8 games in 2016 and 31 training sessions and 9 games in 2017, respectively. Data revealed that players covered on average 3006 ± 1536 and 3860 ± 1189 meters of total distance during training sessions in 2016 and 2017, respectively. Of this distance, high-speed running (165 ± 141; 287 ± 181 m), high metabolic load distance (370 ± 243; 548 ± 247 m), sprints (10 ± 9; 17 ± 10); acceleration (216 ± 113; 200 ± 67) and deceleration efforts (191 ± 99; 180 ± 64) were also obtained. Movements demands were higher during games, revealing that players covered on average 5954 ± 1053 and 6155 ± 509 meters of total distance in 2016 and 2017, respectively. High-speed running (445 ± 128; 541 ± 74 m), high metabolic load distance (784 ± 184; 900 ± 103 m), sprints (23 ± 5; 26 ± 3); acceleration (277 ± 49; 316 ± 35) and deceleration efforts (263 ± 49; 295 ± 35) were also higher in games than in training sessions. This study provides novel insight into the movements demands of Canadian university football, which should be supported by the regular assessment and training of lower-body muscular strength, sprinting speed and repeated-sprint ability.
