Retations of morphological characteristics and motor abilities in U-15 soccer players

Thirty elite U-15 soccer players were subjected to testing using the group of 9 morphological and 9 motor tests, with the aim of determining relation between morphological characteristics and motor abilities. The predictor group of variables consisted of 9 morphological characteristics evaluation tests: 5 tests for body mass and volume evaluation, 1 longitudinal skeleton dimensionality test, and 3 subcutaneous adipose tissue evaluation tests. The criterion group of variables consisted of 9 basic motor tests. After the preliminary processing procedures, the relations between predictor and criterion group of variables were determined using a series of regression analyses. Significant and positive correlations were determined between certain morphological characteristics and motor abilities. The obtained results confirm the results of previous research on the negative impact of body mass and volume on the non-specific and specific motor abilities of soccer player
