Abstract

Our research aims to determine the differences in anthropometric characteristics. Motor and specifically football motor skills in young football players from 12 to 14 years with different gender maturity in R.N Macedonia. The sample of athletes was subjected to transversal examination in anthropometric. Motor and specific motor abilities of young football players from the Polog region of North Macedonia. Based on MANOVA and ANOVA. It can be noticed that the athletes with different chronological ages of 12., 13., and 14 years who do not belong to the same population are statistically significantly different ( p= .00)., In the anthropometrical space, we found differences in six parameters; Height (p=.00).; length of left leg (p=.00); diameter of pelvis bitrochanter (p=.00); diameter of the knee joint (p=.00); diameter of ankle joint (p=.03); We found differences in boys with different chronological ages 12.13 and 14 statistically significant differences (p = .01). Based on the univariate analysis for each variable. It can be noticed that a statistically significant intergroup difference is present in five variables foot taping (p=.05); long jump ( p=.00); the number of 20 meters starting from a standstill (p=.00); raising the torso for 30 seconds from lying on its back (p=.02); deep inclination from sitting (P=.04); 10X5 Shuttle run (p=.00); Illinois test without a ball (p=0.001); zig-zag test (p=0.001); Agility training (p= .00); Compass drill or agility cone started for. Right side (p= .00); Compass drill or agility drill started with left side (p = .00); Homemade agility test (p- .00); and Agility training (p = .00). Conclusion: The organization of the competition system according to the gender maturation will bring an advantage to several segments of the youth football in N.Macedonia and they are: the competitions will more realistic, will be possible for children with the same anthropometric characteristic to compete, it will be possible to compete with children with almost the same motor skills, will bring a much more realistic picture of the current qualities of the players, designing realistic programs for talent development, real achieved results at the moment.
