Resumo(s)
A large number of youth sports programs in sport clubs focus on results. However, the success of young
practitioners depends on several factors, as generic and specific motor competence that develops with the
practice. The sample was boys (N=111) with 10.5(2.48) years of age, who practiced soccer regularly, and
their coaches (N=17). Boys were evaluated on physical fitness (multistage aerobic test), motor coordination
(KTK) and in specific soccer skills (passing and receiving, juggling the ball, dribbling, and kicking to the goal).
A bioimpedance scale were used to determine percent body fat. The coaches were asked about the future
success (achieving high performance) of each of their athletes. Multiple regression was performed to identify
the variables that predicted the coaches' perception of the competence of young soccer players. Results
show that only physical fitness test (cardiovascular fitness) was associated with coaches’ perception of young
soccer players competence. In conclusion, cardiovascular fitness was associated with the perception that
coaches have of their young soccer players competence, but the specific skill levels and motor coordination
were not.
