Abstract

1 The presence of the relative age effect (RAE) has been widely reported. Most of the studies 2 have been performed on elite youth soccer players. The purpose of the present study was to 3 examine if anthropometric and performance characteristics were different amongst older and 4 younger soccer players of amateur clubs born in the same year. One hundred seventy six 5 players in three different age group (U10, U14, U15) participated in the study. 6 Anthropometric measurements (height, weight, body mass index, body fat) and the 7 performance in physical fitness tests [long jump (LJ), countermovement jump (CMJ), T-test, 8 Yo-Yo intermittent endurance test level 1 (YYIET1)] were the dependent variables. In U14 9 the older players jump higher to CMJ ( p = 0.05) and in U15 the older players performed better 10 to CMJ and YYIET1 ( p = 0.01 and p = 0.05, respectively). We observed differences in some 11 fitness test performances between older and younger soccer players. These differences are 12 indicative of RAE presence, but more studies are required on youth soccer players of amateur 13 clubs and of different ages. 14
业余俱乐部青少年足球运动员人体测量特征与体质的相对年龄效应
相对年龄效应(relative age effect, RAE)的存在已被广泛报道。大多数研究都是在优秀的青少年足球运动员身上进行的。本研究的目的是考察同一年出生的业余俱乐部中年纪较大和年龄较小的足球运动员的人体测量和表现特征是否不同。来自U10、U14、U15三个不同年龄组的176名球员参与了这项研究。6 .人体测量(身高、体重、体质指数、体脂)和7 .体能测试[跳远(LJ)、反动作跳远(CMJ)、t检验,8 .溜溜球间歇耐力测试1级(YYIET1)]成绩为因变量。在U14 9中,年龄较大的玩家在CMJ中跳得更高(p = 0.05),在U15中,年龄较大的玩家在CMJ和YYIET1中表现更好(p = 0.01和p = 0.05)。我们观察到年龄较大和年龄较小的足球运动员在11项体能测试中的表现存在差异。这些差异表明RAE的存在,但需要对业余俱乐部和不同年龄的青少年足球运动员进行更多的研究。14
