Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to examine the differences of anthropometric characteristics and cardiovascular endurance of under 18 football players. Thirty-six football players were involved as respondents. Data were collected using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis monitor scan for evaluating anthropometric characteristics, whereas Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1 was used for evaluating cardiovascular endurance. Overall results showed that U18 Akademi Mokhtar Dahari football players had a greater performance compared to Zon Keramat football players. Related to BMI, there was a slight difference between both groups. The obtained results showed that there was no significant difference in height (p=0.14), trunk (p=0.14), and legs (p=0.84). However, there were significant differences in weight (p=0.01) and Body Mass Index (p=0.02). There were also significant differences in the result of yoyo test, where Akademi Mokhtar Dahari football players had a better performance (p=0.00). It concludes that the  Akademi Mokhtar Dahari football players had better results compared to Zon Kermat football players.
