Three Weeks Without Eredivisie: Is the Autumn Break a Curse or a Blessing for Those Left Behind?
The Eredivisie is paused for three weeks due to a consolidated autumn international break, prompting performance trainers to assess its impact on non-international players. Daan Ganzinga of SC Cambuur notes that while the break benefits fatigued players, it may cause issues for others requiring individualized training adjustments. Sam Feringa, former Head of Physical Performance at Ajax, highlights reduced travel fatigue for internationals and suggests clubs should tailor their approach, whether offering rest or additional matches, to optimize player readiness before the October 10 return.
