Abstract

The main objective of this study was to establish the requirements during a soccer competition among cadet soccer players and identify differences according to a specific position. There were selected 22 players divided in: 2 goalkeepers, 8 defenders, 8 midfielders and 4 strikers (with a mean age of 14,50±0,51 years, a body mass of 66,07±4,84 kg, a height of 171,70±7,16 cm, BMI 22,47 ±1,62 kg/m2 and a previous experience competitive of 9,04±1,99 years). Within an official competition the playing and resting time during the game, heart rate, blood lactate concentration and perceived exertion were evaluated. It was observed significant differences between the different positions, involving the heart rate (p<.001) and perceived exertion (p<.05) between the goalkeeper and other positions.
