Objective of the study was to study the competitive motor activity of highly qualified football players of different ages.
Methods and structure of the study. In the period 2019-2022 44 official games were analyzed with the participation of 352 football players aged 16-39 who played 85 minutes or more of playing time. All motor actions were classified into ranges of speed, acceleration (acceleration) and deceleration (decrease in speed) using the tracking system of the RealTrack System, Wimu Pro, with a built-in accelerometer, magnetometer, gyroscope, barometer, GPS. Significance of differences was determined using one-way analysis of variance in the Statistica 10.0 software.
Results and conclusions. The assessment of competitive activity in football is based on the definition of motor activity, which is characterized by the performance of technical and tactical actions with different changes in the direction of movement, changes in speed. The total volume of competitive motor activity of teams of different ages is in the range of 108-116 km. Running volumes, characterized by high speed, sprint, as well as maximum speed among players of different ages do not differ significantly. Athletes over 23 years of age are characterized by a greater number of reaching the speed range of 25.2 km / h and above (sprint) due to intensive acceleration - faster acceleration. Players under 19 years of age make less intense accelerations, but at the same time they are characterized by more intense and shorter braking (deceleration).

Keywords: volume, intensity, movement, speed, acceleration, deceleration, football.
