The set of 7 tests for the analysis of the morphological dimensions was applied on a sample of 104 male students, age 14 and 15, registered in sports clubs (52 in volleyball and 52 in football clubs). The aim of the research was to determine the differences and the structure of the anthropometrical space of the players in two aforementioned sports. The results show that there is a statistically signifi cant difference between the selected football and volleyball players in the area of measured morphological characteristics. The results of the structure of the morphological characteristics demonstrate that two factors can be isolated for each of the groups: - for football players  the factor of longitudinal dimensionality, the volume and the mass of the body, while the second factor is not clearly defi ned, - for volleyball players  the factor of longitudinal dimensionality and the factor of the volume and the mass of the body
