Sažetak

The aim of the study was to analyze differences in power performance and morphological characteristics of young
Croatian soccer players with respect to their team positions and to establish correlations between the power performance
variables. Anthropometric characteristics and jumping and sprint performances were analyzed for 45 soccer players (age
14–15; mean body height 175.4±6.61 cm; body weight 63.6±8.06 kg) according to their team positions (defender, midfielder,
forward). Pearsons coefficient of correlation was used to determine the relationship between the power performance
variables. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) in the power performance of players according to their team position.
The only significant differences between players were in some of the anthropometric characteristics, such as height
and weight linear relationship was determined between almost all the power performance variables. Since the players
in this study were very young and their sports careers have not reached their peak performance, it is possible that
their nominal team positions may change during their soccer careers.
