Sažetak
Kicking is the one of the most important skill in soccer. The most frequently used soccer kick are the full-instep kick and the inside-of-foot-passing shot. The full-instep kick is normaly used for generation of a fast ball speed and this type of kick was used in this study. The relation between sprinting ability and performance of athlete in the field (like kicking performance) is subject of controversy not only in biomechanics, but also in other research fields dealing with muscle power. Twenty-seven croatian national football team members (U-15) (mean (SD) age 15.8 (2.9) years, height 173.5 (5.5) cm, weight 62.1 (5.4) kg) were tested for maximal sprinting ability (sprinting 0-30 m and time over 5, 10, 20 and 30m were recorded), horizontal jump and kicking performance. The velocity of kicking was measured by a Stalker radar gun (from a standing position players took 5 meter run up and perform penalty kicks into the unguarded soccer goal). Time of sprinting was recorded by photocells. Horizontal jump was measured whit standing long Jump test (SLJ). The Person product-moment correlation was used to determine the relationship between selected variables. P<0.005 was considered significant. The mean performance of sprinting test over 5m (sp5) was 1, 44 (0, 1) sec, 10m (sp10) 2, 21 (0, 12)sec, 20m (sp20) 3, 53 (1, 14) sec and over 30m (sp30) was 4, 71 (1, 19) sec. Standing long Jump (SLJ) 211, 09 (15, 56) cm, mean ball velocity measured by radar (vb) was 94, 4 (4, 38) km/h. There was a strong correlation between kicking performance (vb) and sprinting performance in all four sprinting variables sp5 (r =0, 49, p<0, 05) sp10 (r =0, 51, p<0, 05). sp20 (r =0, 45, p<0, 05) and sp30 (r =0, 54, p<0, 05), and between kicking performance and body weight BM (r =0, 53, p<0, 05). No significant correlation was found between kicking performance and standing long jump. In soccer, sprinting performance affects kicking performance and can be influence by meters of run up and velocity of foot in the moment of contact whit a ball. Ability which is important in first 5 meters of sprinting is starting reaction, followed by explosive movements, and we can conclude that motor abilities which are in the basis of sprinting and kicking performance are similar. However, the relationship between these parameters and kicking performance has not been fully investigated. Further study is required to determine how these parameters influence kicking performance.
