Abstract

Introduction. The key element of the footballer’s training is the preparation of the physical performance. Long-term observations have shown tracks in the development of motor skills. In football, anaerobic abilities play a special role in athletic training. It can be assumed that only adequately measured motor skills are a guarantee of dynamic growth. Aim of the study. The aim of this study is to assess the motor skills in the course of biological development of players aged 9–15 taking part in the Polish Soccer Skills programe and their numerical characteristics. Material and methods. The study included 1131 players at the age of 9 (n = 189), 10 (n = 170), 11 (n = 183), 12 (n = 194), 13 (n = 124), 14 (n = 151), 15 (n = 120). The respondents participated in the Polish Soccer Skills programe and had varied professional experience.
