Functional movement screen as a preventive protocol for young football players from the Zadar Football Club

The research is related to the establishment of a quality individualized prevention program as an indispensable part of any fitness training for athletes. The FMS method is a set of tests that is recognized by experts, with the limitation that the results are considered in relation to the age, types of activities, gender, and other anthropological characteristics of the tested athletes or developing children. Testing was conducted on a sample of 20 selective players of the Zadar Football Club ages 14 to 21, with a set of 7 tests. The test results indicate that with older respondents (athletes) a bigger asymmetry and greater compensatory mechanisms were found. In the light of the foregoing, it is necessary to develop individual fitness programs aimed at reducing the number of injuries, with emphasis on the development of quantitative motor skills and technical and tactical preparedness. However, the quality of their movement within their sport - football should not be overlooked, in order to avoid deficits and inequalities of movement. The results of the study indicate that timely corrections affect the quality of life of athletes and the extension of their careers. Considering the results of the research, we believe that the age period between 14 and 17 is crucial for creating an individual fitness program.
