Abstract

This research aims at showing the impact of basic morphological characteristics and specific motoric skills in the selection of young football players, specifically in showing the differences between FC Prishtina’s U17 first and second teams. 30 football players participated in this study and were divided into two teams: a first team (n=15) and a second team (n=15). The competitive season performance of football players served as the selection criterion. It was always based on the eye of the coaches. The morphological measurements (body weight and height; BMI) and the assessment of specific motoric skills (speed, agility, and others) were done at the beginning of the competitive season. The research results through T-test analysis have proven differences between the first and second teams (in favor of the first team) in specific motoric skills: sprint 10 m, sprint 30m, specific endurance 300 m, agility without ball 20 m, agility with ball 20 m, but no significant differences between teams in morphological characteristics (body weight and height, BMI). So, based on this study, we can affirm that the selection of more qualitative football players (for the first team) is significantly influenced by specific motor skills (speed, agility, and specific endurance) but not by morphological characteristics (body weight and height, BMI).

形态特征和运动技能对青少年足球运动员选择的影响

本研究旨在展示基本形态特征和特定运动技能对青少年足球运动员选拔的影响，特别是在展示普里什蒂纳FC U17一队和二队之间的差异。30名足球运动员参加了这项研究，分为两队:一队(n=15)和第二队(n=15)。足球运动员的竞技赛季表现作为选拔标准。这总是基于教练的眼光。形态学测量(体重和身高;BMI)和特定运动技能(速度、敏捷性等)的评估在竞技赛季开始时完成。研究结果通过t检验分析，证明了一、二队在具体运动技能方面存在差异(有利于一队):冲刺10米、冲刺30米、特定耐力300米、无球敏捷性20米、有球敏捷性20米，但在形体特征(体重、身高、BMI)方面，两队之间无显著差异。因此，基于本研究，我们可以肯定，选择更定性的足球运动员(一线队)受到特定运动技能(速度，敏捷性和特定耐力)的显著影响，而不受形态特征(体重和身高，BMI)的影响。
