Sažetak
OBJECTIVE Soccer performance such as kicking performance is dependent on a myriad of factors such as technical/ biomechanical, tactical and physiological aspects. One of the reasons for soccer being so popular and common worldwide is that players do not necessarily need to have extraordinary level of endurance, strength, power and flexibility but need to possess some level of the ability to be efficient during a soccer game. The purpose of this article was to present a way on how to evaluate the full instep kick in soccer. The instep kick test is comprised of three parallel tests ; the ball speed test (km/h measured by stalker radar gun, Texas), the full instep kick accuracy test (goal divided into six fields) and the full instep kick technique test (seven aspects of the full instep kick). METHODS The sample was comprised of elite male soccer players, members of first league clubs in the Croatian League (n=21), age 22.13± ; 0.85. Reliability of kicking performance test was determined by reliability analysis (alpha) and test-retest. (p < 0.05). Ball Velocity was measured using the radar gun (Stalker-Pro, Texas). RESULTS All tests had normally distributed data. Mean ball velocity measured by radar was 104, 4 (4, 38) km/h. Reliability coefficient alpha and test-retest analysis for all three tests was 0, 96.
