Abstract

The Footbonaut is a high-tech instrument for training and diagnostics of agility in soccer. However to our knowledge there existing no scientific studies targeting the application in diagnostics of this measuring instrument. The aim of the cross-sectional cohort study was to test if the response time results from tests in the Footbonaut is a appropriate trait to distinguish between age groups. We assume that professional soccer player had a shorter response time measured by the Footbonaut. The Results of these tests indicated significant differences between the professionals and age groups lower than U17.
