Abstract

This research conducted in order to establish the differences in anthropometrical characteristics between boys who train football systematically and those who participate in classical physical education classes. The research comprised 57 students who divided into two subgroups: one of 25 students who play in Football club 'Vojvodina' from Novi Sad and the other of 32 boys who attend classes of physical education regularly in Agriculture School from Bačka Topola. The variables involved 20 anthropometrical measures which define longitudinal and transversal measures of skeleton, vol­umes and physical size and skin folds. The data was collected by t-test and the results showed the significant differences in all variables which define skin folds, and in variables which define the diameter of hand and volume of lower arm. .
