The main activities that differentiated high/low skill groups in the macrostructure activities were: i) team practice and in the microstructure: ii) collective tactics and iii) “high decision-making opportunities”. We used a retrospective questionnaire to collect information about previous participation in different soccer developmental activities. Players’ tactical decision-making skills were assessed with an objective video-based test (TacticUP® video test for soccer). We examined the type and amount of soccer activities that contributed to distinguish players with different levels of offensive and defensive decision-making skills. The sample comprised 149 Brazilian youth male soccer players (M = 14.9, SD = 1.6 years). We aimed to analyse whether soccer players with different levels of decision-making skills can be differentiated based on their engagement in various types and amounts of soccer activities during their development. Studies in several sports indicated that tactical decision-making skills are necessary for skilful performance.
