The study aimed to analyse motor abilities of young female football players in terms of club membership and playing position. The sample of subjects consisted of 40 players aged 13 and less (average age: 12.5 +- 1.09 years; average height: 150.4 +- 7.67 cm; average body mass: 40.09 +- 3.24 kg). The players were members of two women%s football clubs, i.e. ŽNK Krim and ŽNK Maribor. The sample of variables of motor abilities consisted of 5 tests: running with changes of direction, standing broad jump, combined semi-circle, dribbling with changes of direction and the Yo-Yo test. The data were processed with the IBM SPSS 24 statistical software package. The normality of distribution was checked using the Shapiro-Wilk test and the homogeneity of variance using the Levene's test. The results were analysed using the Mann-Whitney test, t-test and Kruskal-Wallis test. The results showed no statistically significant differences in the results of the abovementioned tests (5% risk level) in terms of both playing position and playing for different clubs. Some differences were established in absolute/average values. The players of ŽNK Maribor achieved higher results in the tests measuring speed of running with changes of direction and speed of dribbling, whereas the players of ŽNK Krim performed better in the tests measuring explosive push-off power (SDM) and endurance (Yo-Yo test). The study gives rise to many substantive and methodological questions as well as calls for analysis of larger samples (which is generally difficult to ensure in such analyses where clubs are compared).
