Team position is of extreme importance in interpretation of morphological data because there are specific demands for a specific play position. The aim of the study was the analysis of morphological characteristics and body composition of elite Croatian soccer players with respect to their team position. The measurements were performed on 57 soccer players, members of the First Croatian National League. The anthropometrical measurement encompassed 13 variables. Descriptive statistics, t-test and MANOVA were used in data processing. The goalkeepers were the tallest and the heaviest (182.9 +/- 4.3 cm; 80.1 +/- 5.1 kg), and had significantly higher amounts of body fat (20.2% goalkeepers vs. 13-15% others; p < 0.05), whereas the forwards and the midfield players were on the average about 3 cm shorter. The goalkeepers had longer legs and arms (p < 0.05), and the largest biacromial diameter (43.2 +/- 1.9 cm). The forwards were the shortest on the average (179.2 +/- 6.3 cm). The lowest values of fat tissue were found in defenders (13.9%) and midfield players (14.4%). In conclusion, the differences in morphological characteristics according to the team position were noticed only in goalkeepers, especially regarding their height, weight and the percentage of fat tissue.
在形态学数据的解读中，球员位置极为重要，因为特定的比赛位置有特定的要求。本研究的目的是分析克罗地亚精英足球运动员的形态特征和身体成分与其球队位置的关系。对克罗地亚国家甲级联赛的57名足球运动员进行了测量。人体测量包括13个变量。数据处理采用描述性统计、t检验和多变量方差分析。守门员是最高和最重的（182.9±4.3厘米；80.1±5.1千克），且体脂含量显著更高（守门员为20.2%，其他球员为13 - 15%；p<0.05），而前锋和中场球员平均矮约3厘米。守门员的腿和手臂更长（p<0.05），肩峰间径最大（43.2±1.9厘米）。前锋平均身高最矮（179.2±6.3厘米）。脂肪组织含量最低的是后卫（13.9%）和中场球员（14.4%）。总之，仅在守门员身上发现了根据球队位置的形态特征差异，尤其是在身高、体重和脂肪组织百分比方面。
