In view of the research, we used the next methods: scientifical documentation, statistics, observation, experiments. In the course of this research, the main factor developed is the maximum speed in specific conditions, namely the speed running.
Knowledge of the characteristics of the specific preparation at the age 6 to 10 years of age leads to scientifical training and in this way empirical preparation, without precise rules, can be avoided.
Knowledge of the characteristics of age, of the level concerning the development of the driving qualities through trials of control and of the level concerning the technical and tactical preparation through tests of profile, contributes to the permanent knowledge of the level of progress and makes possible the co-optation in batches of performance of children with actual qualities for football.
