Abstract

Objective: To identify and describe the anthropometric measurements, body composition and somatotype of Brazilian players in various categories and positions in the field. Method: The sample consisted of 1,115 male soccer players and divided into eight groups: Under 07 (n = 60); Sub-09 (n = 75); Sub 11 (n = 140); Sub 13 (n = 182); Sub 15 (n = 184); Under 17 (n = 166); U-20 (n = 144) and Professional (n = 164). Descriptive statistics (mean ± standard deviation) was used through SPSS, using v21 "one-way ANOVA", complementary "Bonferroni" significance test considering the value of p <0.05. Results: Anthropometric variables related to body composition: body weight, height, body fat percentage, SDC (sum of skin folds) showed the perfect evolution of the categories analyzed. Conclusion: there is harmony in the evolution process between groups.
