Abstract

Anthropometric characteristics and body composition play an important role in achievements in most sports, however, there are still no specific recommendations on anthropometry-body composition for women in futsal. The research aimed to determine differences in anthropometric characteristics and body composition between elite female futsal players, members of the best futsal clubs in Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Croatia. The sample of respondents consisted of 30 elite female futsal players. The first sub-sample consisted of players from Montenegro (n=11, 19.18±2.44 yrs), the second sub-sample consisted of players from North Macedonia (n=10, 18.10±3.03 yrs), and the last sub-sample was consisted by players from Croatia (n=9, 20.33±5.17 yrs). Anthropometric characteristics and body composition were evaluated by a battery of 11 variables: body height (BH), body mass (BM), triceps skinfold (TS), biceps skinfold (BiS), back skinfold (BS), abdominal skinfold (AS), upper leg skinfold (UlS), lower leg skinfold (LlS), body mass index (BMI), fat percentage (FP), and muscle mass percentages (MP). Based on the ANOVA and post-hoc tests, findings showed that have differences between the groups in 4 anthropometric parameters such body height, body mass, abdominal skinfold, and muscle mass percentages. Female futsal players from Montenegro and Croatia have significantly higher results in parameters such as body height, body mass, and muscle mass percentages. While futsal players from Montenegro have significantly higher abdominal skinfold values than Croatia. The results suggest that there is some difference in anthropometry- body composition between groups of female futsal players, but for more complete conclusions an analysis should be performed on a larger sample of high-level female futsal players. However, despite that, this research made a significant contribution because it was the first to identify differences in anthropometric characteristics and body composition among elite female futsal players from different countries in this part of the world. In this way, it has opened the doors for further research into the anthropometry of female futsal players in this region.
黑山、北马其顿和克罗地亚优秀女子五人制足球运动员人体测量特征和身体成分的比较分析
人体测量特征和身体组成在大多数运动中都起着重要的作用,然而,对于女子五人制足球的人体测量和身体组成,目前还没有具体的建议。这项研究的目的是确定优秀女子五人制足球运动员、黑山、北马其顿和克罗地亚最好的五人制足球俱乐部成员在人体测量特征和身体组成方面的差异。调查对象为30名优秀女子五人制足球运动员。第一个子样本由黑山球员组成(n=11, 19.18±2.44岁),第二个子样本由北马其顿球员组成(n=10, 18.10±3.03岁),最后一个子样本由克罗地亚球员组成(n=9, 20.33±5.17岁)。人体测量特征和身体组成通过11个变量进行评估:身高(BH)、体重(BM)、三头肌皮褶(TS)、二头肌皮褶(BiS)、背部皮褶(BS)、腹部皮褶(AS)、上肢皮褶(UlS)、下肢皮褶(LlS)、体重指数(BMI)、脂肪百分比(FP)和肌肉质量百分比(MP)。基于方差分析和事后检验,结果显示,4个人体测量参数如身高、体重、腹部皮褶和肌肉质量百分比在组间存在差异。来自黑山和克罗地亚的女子五人制足球运动员在身高、体重和肌肉质量百分比等参数上的得分明显更高。而来自黑山的五人制足球运动员的腹部皮褶值明显高于克罗地亚。结果表明,五人制女足运动员在人体测量学和身体组成方面存在一定差异,但为了得到更完整的结论,还需要对更大样本的高水平五人制女足运动员进行分析。然而,尽管如此,这项研究还是做出了重大贡献,因为它首次发现了来自该地区不同国家的优秀女子五人制足球运动员在人体测量特征和身体组成方面的差异。通过这种方式,为进一步研究该地区女子五人制足球运动员的人体测量学打开了大门。
