Resumen: The activity carried out by football players during games can be considered as an example of the characteristics of a team as understood by Organizational Economics. In this study, the Spanish First Division football teams were taken as a sample to evaluate the implemented organisational design. Data Envelopment Analysis was used to calculate the efficiency and the variables representing the degree of coordination achieved in the games were determined by factor analysis. It can be concluded that there are efficient Spanish First Division football teams that have implemented organizational designs leading to good team coordination.
