Introduction. The monitoring of the skills development data is especially important in youth soccer players. It should be important for the trainer in order to properly plan the training and achieve the highest possible adaptation of the individual athlete. Aim of Study. After an initial qualitative and quantitative testing phase, carried out in previous works, the aim of this study was to choose adequate tests to evaluate the overall performance in the young players. Material and Methods. After an initial review of the literature, the research team chose three types of tests with the technical components: T-drill Test (shooting), Loughborough Soccer Passing Test (passage), Hoff Test (conduction). The first two tests focus only on the agility component, while the third also evaluates resistance and agility. Tests were performed in 15 boys between 13 and 14 years of age practicing in an amateur football school. Results. The overall average time in the T-drill Test was 15”53 without corrections for scored goals and 14”79 with such corrections. The average time achieved in the LSP Test was 56”47 in the first attempt and 58”53 in the second attempt. Finally, in the Hoff Test, the boys covered an average distance of 1512.8 m. Conclusions. By comparing the results obtained from the sample with the reference data in the literature, it is possible to examine the performance and the level of basic skills. These tests can also be used to identify talent in youth groups.
