Analysis of Body Composition and Specific Motor Movements of Junior Football Players
Journal Title: Journal of Anthropology of Sport and Physical Education - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the research was to determine correlations between body composition and situational motor movements in football. The sample consisted of 22 respondents (16-18 years of age, 179.6 ± 5.0 cm, 71.2 ± 7.2 kg), selected from junior football players that compete at the highest competition level for this category in Bosnia and Herzegovina. For the purposes of this research, a set of 7 variables was used. The Pearson correlation coeffi cient determined a medium high correlation between explosive strength of sprint type - running at 10m with body weight (r = .473; p <.05), and with body mass index 10m (r = .576; p <.01). It can be concluded that more corpulent and havier players with optimum body mass index have better results in short sprint distance at 10m. The height of players does not make a signifi cant contribution to the realization of specifi c footbal movements. Favorable body composition is not suffi cient to explain the quality of the performance of specifi c motor movements in football.
