Development analysis of soccer players' functional characteristics

The purpose of this paper was to identify functional abilities of soccer players, as well as to determine differences in spiroergometric parameters among soccer players in the U-15, U-17 and U-19 category. The research included the following variables: absolute maximal oxygen uptake, relative maximal oxygen uptake, maximum minute ventilation, maximum heart rate, and before mentioned variables at the anaerobic threshold, resting lactate concentration and lactate concentration at the end of the test, body height and weight, and body mass index. Analysis of variance show that soccer training has a major influence on the development of functional abilities, and the results are progressively better with age. Therefore, it is to be expected that soccer players in the U-15 and U-17 category will achieve similar values once they reach the age of U-19 players.
