Assessment of functional, coordination and power fitness of 7-8 form boys

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to compare some anthropometric, body composition indexes and VO2max of Ahvaz elite soccer players of different playing positions. Material: Participants were 60 male soccer players (age 24.31±4.20 years) from 4 teams in the two highest divisions in Iran. The sample included 8 goalkeepers, 18 defenders, 20 midfielders and 14 strikers. Anthropometric variables of subjects (height, weight and BMI) and body composition (%BF) were measured. Skinfold thickness measurements were taken us… Show more

“…It is known [Ulmer, 1979;Najafi, Shakerian, Habibi, Shabani, & Fatemi, 2015], that anthropometrical characteristics are closely connected with physiological processes in organism and features of temper. These characteristics influence on bio-mechanical structure of movements.…”

“…Midfielders run the most (up to 11.9-12 km) compared to all other players (forwards up to 11.2 km; defenders up to 10.6-11.4 km; Di Salvo et al, 2007), whereas goalkeepers run the shortest distance in a soccer game (4km, Gil, Gil, Ruiz, Irazusta, & Irazusta, 2007). Moreover, midfielders have significantly higher VO2max values compared to all other playing positions, while the goalkeepers have the lowest (Najafi, Shakerian, Habibi, Shabani, & Fatemi, 2015).…”
