The working group of the study consisted of 11 football players who played in Turkey Futsal U19 National team at least five times in various positions. Their ages ranged between 18 and 19. Five football matches of each 11 players were examined before and after the futsal. These players have 7 years football experiences before futsal. All of their experiences on futsal are 1 year. After the determination of players, the football matches were selected and video analysis of these matches was performed by considering the technical and tactical parameters. The significance of the difference between the technical and tactical behaviors of each player before and after futsal was analyzed using Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. As a result of the statistical analyzes, there was a significant difference determined (p<0.05) at the passes (P), accurate passes (AP), lost balls (LB), tackles (T), base control (BC), base passes (BP), defense attempts (DA) and assists (A) of players between before futsal (BF) and after futsal (AF). However, the attack attempts (AA), won attack attempts (WAA), goal attempts (GA) and goals (G) of players were not statistically different (p>0.05) between BF and AF. It was concluded that most of the players improved their technical and tactical behaviors after futsal.
