However, little is known about this phenomenon in high-level adult male futsal players. Aim: The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of relative age effect in Brazilian male elite futsal players, and its relationship with playing position and goals scored on Brazil National Futsal Leagues (BNFL) from 2016 to 2020. Methods: The distribution of birth dates, playing positions, and goals scored by male participants of the Brazil National Futsal Leagues were analyzed. Chi-squared tests were used to analyze the birth dates distribution based on quarters and semesters of the year, according to playing position (defender, winger, pivot, and goalkeeper) and scoring performance (high and low). Results: The overall analysis indicated that the relative age effect is prevalent on the pool of athletes analyzed. However, this effect was position-dependent, since relatively older athletes were overrepresented only in wingers and defenders playing positions. On the other hand, scoring performance was not associated with the relative age effect, since this effect was found in both performance levels. Conclusion: Relative age effects are prevalent in Brazilian male elite futsal athletes, especially for defenders and wingers. Considering the high level of competitiveness for spots in elite futsal teams, coaches and sports administrators must be educated about the prevalence of the relative age effect in this sporting context. This is necessary in order to reduce the inequalities generated by age categories based on arbitrary cut-off dates, which may reduce potential talent loss.Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso, MTUniversidade Federal de Mato Grosso Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação Física, MTCentro Universitário UDF, DFInstituto Politécnico de Viana do Castelo Escola Superior de Desporto e Lazer, Viana do CasteloInstituto de Telecomunicações Department of CovilhãUniversidade Federal de Goiás, GOCentro de Instrução e Adaptação da Aeronáutica, Lagoa Santa, MGCentro Universitário IESB, DFCentro Universitário UNIPLAN, Águas Claras, DFUniversidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”, SPUniversidade Católica de Brasília, Taguatinga, DFCentro Universitário UniCEUB, DFEstácio UniSEB, Ribeirão Preto, SPUniversidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”, SPUniversidade Federal de Mato GrossoPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Educação FísicaCentro Universitário UDFEscola Superior de Desporto e LazerInstituto de TelecomunicaçõesUniversidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)Centro de Instrução e Adaptação da AeronáuticaCentro Universitário IESBCentro Universitário UNIPLANUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)Universidade Católica de BrasíliaCentro Universitário UniCEUBEstácio UniSEB2022-04-28T19:48:49Z2022-04-28T19:48:49Z2022-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1980-657420210011521Motriz.
