Abstract

The main purpose of the study was to compare the performance of vertical jumps and shuttle (RSS) and straight line (RSL) repeated sprint running between futsal players of U15 and U17 categories. Fifteen male futsal players performed vertical jumps and repeated sprints tests in straight line and change of direction. There were no significant differences of sprint performance and fatigue index (p>0.05) in the RSS and RSL, as well as vertical jumps (p>0.05) between categories. Significant correlation (p<0.05) of sprint performance in both RSS and RSL with vertical jumps performance were observed. Sprints performance and vertical jumps were similar between U15 and U17 categories. The level of muscle power was related to sprint performance.
