CONDITIONING FOR U-18 FOOTBALL PLAYERS

Sodoben nogomet zahteva od nogometaša sposobnost vzdržljivosti in odlično kondicijsko pripravljenost. Da se igralec lahko razvije v profesionalnega nogometaša, se morajo kondicijske priprave začeti že v mladinskih selekcijah skozi različne metode in oblike kondicijskega treniranja. Pri mladih nogometaših se motorične in funkcionalne sposobnosti trenirajo skozi vaje, skladno z njihovim fizičnim in duševnim razvojem, ki so tesno povezane s tehničnim in taktičnim znanjem nogometa. Kondicijski trener mora kondicijske priprave prilagoditi tako skupinam kot posameznikom znotraj ekipe. Glavne motorične sposobnosti, ki jih mora mladi nogometaš osvojiti, so: moč, hitrost, gibljivost, preciznost, koordinacija in ravnotežje. Mladi nogometaš se kondicijsko pripravlja skozi kombinacijo različnih oblik in metod kondicijskega treniranja za osvajanje navedenih motoričnih sposobnosti ter večjo vzdržljivostjo na način, ki ne predstavlja \u27mučenja\u27, ampak ga spodbudi za osvajanje veščin, ki mu bodo v pomoč v nogometni igri.Modern football demands from a footballer capability of endurance and excellent physical preparation.
