Assessment the level of condition, basic motor coordination and football skills between two age categories of young football players.

Title: Assessment of the level of condition, basic motor coordination, and football skills between two age categories of young football players. Objectives: Find out possible differences in the level of condition, basic motor coordination, and specific football skills between two age categories of young players (U14 and U15). At the same time, the aim is to determine the effect of different rates of biological growth on fitness performance, basic motor coordination, and football skills. The last goal is to find out the level of association between the indicator of the condition, basic motor coordination and football skills. Methods: The main scientific method of theoretical - empiric character was observation and testing. Research field consisted of the players of category U14 (n=24; Age = 13,79±0,49; Height = 166,1±8,42; Weight = 46,7±8,65) and U15 (n=25; Age = 14,8±0,33; Height = 173,17±7,39; Weight = 61,82±8,52) from the football club FK Motorlet Praha. The level of fitness was measured in tests of a sprint at 10 and 30 meters, 505 agility test, Illinois agility test, long jump, Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1. The level of basic motor coordination was determined with the Körperkoordinationtest für Kinder test battery (KTK test) containing 4 subtests: balancing backwards, jumping..
