Abstract

Aim of this study was to determine whether there are significant differences in boys selected for soccer from equals selected for other team sport and subject not trained The research material consisted of 10 years old boys selected for different team sport including soccer (n = 97) and un-trained equals – students of Szczecin’s primary schools (n = 39). The research methods included indirect tests of motor abilities with proved reliability and validity that can be applied in field conditions. The tests evaluated the level of: basic anthropometric variables, flexibility, kinesthetic differentiation, speed of reaction, movement frequency, space orientation, balance, maximal a-lactic and lactic anaerobic power, quick mobilization of the muscle, aerobic endurance and absolute muscle strength. Due to the fact that indirect field tests were used in the research not all results are represented with SI units.The obtained results indicate that children selected for soccer have a statistically significant lower body height than candidates for basketball training. The analysis of the results obtained in the flexibility tests showed that candidates for soccer present significantly higher level of this ability only in comparison with un-trained boys. Candidates selected for soccer presented a higher level of kinesthetic differentiation than all other examined boys. They also presented a higher level of movement frequency than volleyball players and a higher level of space orientation than the un-trained boys. Soccer players presented a lower level of time of reaction than the candidates selected for basketball training. Results of all conditioning abilities tests obtained by soccer players were significantly better than those obtained by un-trained boys (p ≤ 0.001) and the candidates for volleyball training (p ≤ 0.05, p ≤ 0.001). The greatest differences were noticed in tests of aerobic endurance and maximal a-lactic and lactic anaerobic power.
