Impact of speed based skill training on selected Motoric parameters and skill performance of Men soccer players

Abstract

This study was designed to investigate the impact of speed based skill training on selected motoric parameters and skill performance of men soccer players. To achieve the purpose of the study 40 Inter-Collegiate men soccer players were selected from affiliated colleges of Bharathiar University, Coimbatore. The subjects was randomly assigned to two equal groups (n=20). Group- I underwent speed based skill training (SBST) and Group - II was acted as control group (CG). The respective training was given to the experimental group for 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) for the period of twelve weeks. The control group was not be given any sort of training except their routine work. The motoric parameter speed were measures by 20mts sprint test and skill performance dribbling was assessed by Sir Bobby Charlton Soccer School of Australia Test. The data collected from the subjects was statistically analyzed with ‘t’ ratio to find out significant improvement if any at 0.05 level of confidence. The result of the speed and dribbling improved significantly due to impact of speed based skill training with the limitations of (diet, climate, life style) status and previous training the result of the present study coincide findings of the investigation done by different experts in the field of sports sciences.
