The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between different field tests in soccer players. 28 amateur soccer players were tested on four capacities: Acceleration in a straight line (5 m and 15 m), change of direction ability (modified agility test free, MATF), horizontal and vertical jump and endurance (Yo-Yo Level 1 version).. The association found between the acceleration capacity at 15 m and the MATF (r = 0.727, p < 0.01) was higher than that obtained from the acceleration of 5 m and the MATF (r = 0.559 p < 0.01). The better correlation was observed in acceleration 15 m to 5 m with the capacity of both vertical and horizontal jump. Possibly the type of test can determine the relationships between the different field tests.
