Objective. To assess the difference in physical fitness of players in successful versus less-successful professional soccer teams in South Africa.Design. Professional soccer players (N = 140) underwent a battery of tests assessing important physiological components during the early part of their competitive season.Players were then separated into two groups on the basis of their teams' final log position in the Premier Soccer League (PSL) in South Africa. Players in successful (N =70) and less-successful (N = 70) teams were in the top four or bottom six positions on the log respectively. Descriptive statistics (mean ± standard deviation (SD)) werecalculated for each group, and independent t-tests were used to compare the means of the groups for each of the physical tests.Main outcome measures. Body composition, flexibility, muscle strength-endurance, power, speed, agility, aerobic endurance, and repeat sprint distance.Results. There were no significant differences between groups for all measures of body composition, flexibility, repeat sprint distance, and agility. Significant differences(p South African Journal of Sports Medicine Vol. 19 (2) 2007: pp. 40-45
