Successful practicing of futsal depends on various indices directly connected to the different sides of preparation of futsal players – physical, technical, psychological and theoretical. Between these indices, of course there are a number of links and interdependences existing and manifesting. We have reached this aim using Pearson’s coefficient (r) for common per appearance, linear per form and quantitatively measurable indications upon the following levels of correlation dependencies: weak (r = 0 up to 0,3), moderate (r = 0,3 up to 0,5), significant (r = 0,5 up to 0,7), big (r = 0,7 up to 0,9), and very big (r = over 0,9). Correlation analysis has been made in the following direction: investigation of correlation dependencies of indices with the experimental group (UNWE – Futsal) – initial, medial and final one for finding out the level and dynamics in the links between the main indices of physical and technical preparation. We notice a moderate trend of increasing of the existing dependences from weak to moderate and from moderate to significant in the course of the experiment. The basic conclusion we could make is that there is a big number of significant and great correlations between the indices giving information regarding the speed, explosive force, ability for sharp change of direction and also of the technical skills (controlling the ball at a high speed mostly).
