摘要

The aim of study was to analyze the influence of Tactical Behavior Efficiency (BE) and the Date of Birth over Tactical Performance (TP) of U-13 youth soccer players. The sample comprised 100 players who performed 5213 tactical actions. FUT-SAT have been used for data collection and analysis. Descriptive statistics were used as well as Multinomial Regression test with p 0.05. Positive associations have been verified verified between BE and TP for the principles "Width and Length", "Delay" and "Balance", and between the date of Birth and offensive TP for players within the second quartile. It is concluded that a better BE for the principles "Width and Length", "Delay" and "Balance" as well as players' date of birth are determinant for tactical performance.
