The Objectives study was to compare hematological profiles of different playing position football players in the Tigray region, Ethiopia. The study was conducted in northern parts of Ethiopia, had played in the Ethiopian premier league, super league, and National league competition programs. Descriptive Cross-sectional design and quantitative research methods were employed to compare hematological variables of different position soccer players. To get appropriate data voluntary health soccer players were selected through purposive sampling techniques. Goalkeepers (GK, 15), Defenders (DF, 27), Midfielders (MF, 36) and Strikers (ST, 23) based on player’s position 101 players were selected from a total of 200 Tigray regions. Data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to conclude the differences between GK, DF, MF, and ST soccer players and Post Hoc test (LSD) applied at p < .05. No significant difference was found between playing positions in WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, PLT, LYM%, NEUT%, LYM#, NEUT#, RDW, PDW, MPV, and PCT (p > .05). Coaches and Medicals might take into consideration positional differences, age, BMI, and training status of players during testing hematological profiles.
