Relationships between change of direction (CoD), balance, speed, and power are less extensively studied in youth but provide important information for training. The aim of this study was to determine associations between CoD, balance, speed, and leg power in prepubescent soccer players. Thirty young male soccer players (9.26 ± 0.76 years; Peak-Height-Velocity: -3.42 ± 0.47 years) were assessed for CoD (shuttle run), Y-balance, speed (10-30-m sprint), and muscle power (unilateral, bilateral countermovement jumps [CMJ], unilateral, bilateral standing long jumps [SLJ], and triple hop test). Positive correlations were observed between the shuttle run, and 10-m (r=0.46) and 30-m sprint time (r= 0.47). Negative correlations were found between the shu... view moreĀ»
