Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the activity patterns and physiological demands of 7-a-side youth soccer matches across two chronological age categories (U12 and U14). Twenty-two soccer players of a national youth soccer academy were investigated. Players of each age category performed two training match (2 x 25 min) and were monitored by GPS and heart rate monitor units. Players of both categories covered similar total distance (5348 +/- 307 m), at similar mean heart rate values (86 +/- 4% of maximum). However, the number of high-intensity runs (82.5 +/- 17.4 vs. 69.7 +/- 15.2) and total distance covered during sprints (264 +/- 207 vs. 128 +/- 74 m) were significantly (p
