The aim of the study was to analyse a level of sprint abilities, jump abilities and intermittent endurance of playing groups divided according to playing positions (goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, forwards) from Slovak national under-21 soccer team (N=18, goalkeepers n=2, defenders n=4, midfielders n=7, forwards n=5) in time of qualification for the UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship 2011. The level of sprint abilities was diagnosed with the device Fitro Light Gates (FiTRONIC, Bratislava, The Slovak Republic). The criterion for the level assessment was the time obtained in the distance of 10m with the exactness of 0.01s. The level of jump abilities was diagnosed with the device FiTRO Jumper (FiTRONIC, Bratislava, The Slovak Republic). The criterion for the level assessment was the jump height in centimeter (cm) with the exactness of 0.1cm. Intermittent endurance was diagnosed with Yo-Yo Intermittent recovery test, level 2. The criterion for the evaluation was total overcame distance in the test in metres (m). Differences in the level of sprint abilities, jump abilities and intermittent endurance were recognised and defined with the special subject analysis. The level of sprint abilities of the whole group was presented with the average performance with the value 2.21±0.08 s, the level of jump abilities with the average performance with the value 39.0±4.2 cm and the level of intermittent endurance with the average value 1283±294 m, what means VO 2 max. kg-1 = 62.7±4.0 ml.kg-1 min-1. We have not found out with special subject analysis any significant differences in monitored parameters between groups divided according to playing positions. The significantly lower level was observed only in the level of sprint abilities and intermittent endurance of goalkeepers.

Cilj studije bio je da se analizira nivo sprinterske sposobnosti, eksplozivnih sposobnosti donjih ekstremiteta i specifične izdržljivost igrača u zavisnosti od pozicije u timu (golmani, odbrambeni igrači, vezni igrači, napadači) slovačkog fudbalskog nacionalnog tima ispod 21 godine (N=18, golmana n=2, odbrambenih igrača n=4, veznih igrača n=7, napadača n=5) tokom kvalifikacija za UEFA Evropskog prvenstva ispod 21 godinu 2011. Nivo sprinterskih sposobnosti dijagnostikovana je uređajem Fitro Light Gates (FiTRONIC, Bratislava, Slovačka Republika). Kriterijum za procenu nivoa bilo je vrijeme dobijeno na distanci od 10 m sa tačnost 0,01 s Nivo eksplozivne sposobnosti donjih ekstremiteta dijagnostikovana je uređajem FiTRO Jumper (FiTRONIC, Bratislava, Slovačka Republika). Kriterijum za procjenu nivoa eksplozivnosti bila je visina skoka u centimetrima (cm) sa tačnošću 0,1 cm. Izdržljivost je dijagnostikovana sa Yo-Yo intervalnim testom oporavka, nivo 2. Kriterijum za procjenu bio je ukupno pređena distanca u testu u metrima (m). Razlike u nivoima sprinterske sposobnosti, eksplozivnih sposobnosti i izdržljivosti su prepoznate i definisane kao posebni predmet analize. Nivo sprintertskih sposobnosti cijele grupe predstavlja prosječna sposobnost sa vrijednošću 2,21±0,08 s, nivo eksplozivnih sposobnosti sa prosječnom vrijednošću visine vertikalnog skoka od 39,0±4,2 cm i nivo specifične izdržljivosti sa prosječnom vrijednošću od 1283±294 m, što znači VO 2 max.kg-1 =62,7±4,0 mlkg-1 min-1. Posebnim predmetom analize nismo utvrdili bilo kakve značajne razlike u posmatranim parametrima između grupa podjeljenih prema poziciji u timu. Značajno niži nivo zabilježen je samo u nivou sprinterskih sposobnosti i specifične izdržljivosti kod golmana.
