Kinematical analysis in football can provide objective information about the player’s physical performance.

Particularly, ‘player tracking systems’ are one of the latest sport technologies which enable trainers or

coaches to obtain the distance covered by football players in a match, by utilising players positioning and

range of velocities. This study aims to examine the relationship between running distances and the result

of the game (winning, losing or drawing). 20 young players (16±0,9 years old), height (173,05± 6,36 cm)

weight (64,51± 6,44 kg) participated in this study. Correlations were calculated with SPSS 21.0 version using

Spearman’s correlation coefficient. As a result of the statistical analysis, a negative relationship was

found between the number of goals scored and the total distance travelled during the event, when the

game was won (p <0.01). In conclusion, it was observed that in matches which were won the total running

distances were less, results indicate that the total running distance of teams cannot be taken as a parameter

while determining match results.

önemli bilgiler elde edilmesini sağlar. Özellikle yakın zamanda geliştirilen oyuncu takip sistemleri

sayesinde futbolcunun müsabaka esnasında yaptığı koşular ve bu koşuları hangi hızlarda gerçekleştirdiğini

tespit edilebilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı genç futbolcuların müsabakası içerisinde yapmış oldukları

koşu mesafelerinin, müsabakanın sonucunda oluşan galibiyet, beraberlik ve mağlubiyet durumlarıyla olan

ilişkilerinin araştırılmasıdır. Çalışmaya yaşları (16±0,9 yıl), boyları (173,05± 6,36 cm), vucüt ağırlığı (64,51±

6,44 kg) olan 20 erkek futbolcu katılmıştır. Çalışmanın istatistiksel analizi SPSS 21,0 paket programında

Spearman Kolerasyon analizi uygulanarak yapılmıştır. Yapılan istatistiksel analiz sonucunda müsabakaların

galibiyet ile sonuçlandığı durumlarda atılan gol sayılarıyla müsabaka esnasında kat edilen toplam mesafe

arasında düzeyinde negatif yönde ilişki bulunmuştur(p<0,01). Sonuç olarak kazanılan maçlarda toplam

koşu mesafelerinin daha az olduğu, takımların toplam koşu mesafelerinin maç sonucunda oluşabilecek

durumları belirlemede tek başına etki oluşturmayacağını düşünmekteyiz.
