Sažetak
The aim of the research was to determine the structure and extent of the expected differences caused by age among 37 priory selected female wing players (U18, U16, U14) in 24 standard anthropometric variables appertaining to four latent factors: longitudinal and transversal skeleton dimensions, body volume and mass, and subcutaneous fatty tissue. ANOVA revealed significant global age differences in 10 variables (p<.01 five ; p<.05 five). Ten significant particular age differences were obtained as well ; two between juniors and cadets (knee and elbow diameters in favour of cadets), six between juniors and younger cadets (body height, arm length, arm span, body mass and flexed upper arm circumference – all in favour of juniors ; and chest skinfold in favour of cadets), whereas only two differences were found between cadets in body height (in favour of cadets) and calf circumference (in favour of younger cadets).
