Good news about the commitment of our researchers Diana Paola Montealegre Suárez, Viviana Caicedo Delgado and Maira Alejandra Camargo Valderrama. who publish an article called: «Anthropometric profile and somatotype of futsala athletes based on their position on the pitch in the scientific journal Acción -Motriz, categorized in B according to the Minciencia measurement model». Their findings support that the anthropometric profile in futsala changes depending on the position on the field of play; which indicates that these variables are important when selecting the position of the athletes, since it is possible to enter an advantage or disadvantage in some measures such as the size of the goalkeepers.
