- Abstract
The professionalized practice of women's football in Brazil has been expanding. This expansion encouraged the emergence of base categories within the teams. With that, investigating the difference between the profile of professional players and the base categories becomes important to make a better transition between the categories. Thus, the aim of the study was to compare the anthropometric profile and physical performance of under-20 and professional women's football players. For this, an anthropometric assessment of 19 under-20 football players (17.9 ± 0.81 years) and 20 professional players (24.4 ± 6.46 years) from an elite team in Brazil was carried out. In addition, physical performance was assessed by countermovement jump (CMJ) tests and 10-and 30-meter sprints. Only the CMJ and 30- meter sprint performances differed significantly between groups. The height in the CMJ was lower in the under-20 category players (25.60 ±3.51 cm) compared to the professionals (31.30 ±2.64 cm) (p<0.001). In addition, the speed in the 30m sprint was also lower in the under-20 category players (22.40 ± 0.66 km/h) compared to the professionals (23.00 ±0.81 km/h) (p= 0.014). Thus, professional female football players had better physical performances than female under-20 players. Finally, the professionals involved with the transition process of the sub-20 players to the professional team must consider the differences in physical performance between the categories in the physical preparation of the players.
