Summary

The goal of this observational study is to assess whether adherence to 24-hour movement guidelines is associated with diet quality in professional football staff, an underrepresented population affected by irregular schedules, travel, and high-pressure environments. The main objectives are to:

* Assess and describe the sleep quality of football sports staff
* Measure and contextualise the adherence to 24-hour movement guidelines in football sports staff
* Analyse and describe the diet quality of football sports staff
* Describe correlations between job title, gender and location for physical movement and diet quality

Participants will answer a questionnaire that incorporates:

* Personal descriptives (height, weight, age, location, job title)
* Data on physical activity (movement, sleep, sedentary behaviour, strength training, screen time) based on the Canadian 24-hour Movement Guidelines
* The Mini-EAT dietary screening tool that evaluates diet quality (intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, dairy, and sweets)

Statistical analyses will examine adherence levels, diet quality and the potential associations, aiming at informing health and performance strategies for football staff.

Questionnaire

The questionnaire will be made comprised of the questions taken from the Whole Day Matters Toolkit (WDMT) 24-hour movement questionnaire (The Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology, 2021), which is based on the official 24-hour movement guidelines (Ross et al., 2020) (see appendix). For diet quality, Mini-EAT, a short dietary screening tool will be used (Lara-Breitinger et al., 2023) (see appendix). The questionnaire will be open for two months during the football mid-season time period (January 15th to March 15th). The principal investigator will distribute the questionnaire digitally via Google Forms. It will be sent directly to sports staff professionals, individually and to football clubs and to universities to distribute to their cohort. Only people with the link will be able to access the questionnaire. Participants will answer the questionnaire, which will take roughly 10 minutes, completing the intervention.
