    The present research work determined the nutritional status of schoolchildren who play soccer at the "Escuela del 10" Academy of Ficoa-Ambato by evaluating anthropometric indicators and food intake, in a sample of 92 children and adolescents who were selected by exclusion and inclusion criteria. To obtain data, anthropometric measurements were taken (weight, height, circumferences) and a survey of physical and dietary activity was carried out on parents, children and adolescents together with an informed consent, the WHO ANTROPLUS system to analyze anthropometric data; to analyze food intake, the food exchange list (GABA) was used, with which it was possible to know the percentage of adequacy of food consumption of each individual and the statistical software Jamovi to establish the relationship between T/E, BMI/E, body composition, cardiometabolic risk and training time. The results determined that the total population studied (92) for the most part began soccer practice at 3 years of age, it was concluded that 95.65% reported a T/E within normal ranges, 50% presented a Optimal BMI/E, 60.9% do not present cardiometabolic risk, with respect to body composition, 60% have an adequate amount of fat and 82.6% have an amount of muscle mass appropriate for age. However, 80.4% have an inadequate consumption of macronutrients, both due to excess and deficit, and 62% stated that they consume energy drinks with an average frequency of 3 times a week.
