“…In soccer, weak agility and low balance during dribbling can lead to opponents easily capturing the ball. Therefore, agility significantly influences speed and dribbling skills, and a low agility level makes it challenging to outperform opponent's defense (Abidin et al, 2020).…”

The primary objective of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of change of direction (COD) and agility among players engaged in soccer, basketball, and handball. Additionally, the researchers introduced the novel concept of “Agility deficit”, aimed at evaluating distinctions between COD and agility during running (COD-R; Agility-R) and dribbling (COD-D; Agility-D). The participant cohort comprises 38 individuals with an average age of 20.63 years, distributed across 13 handball players, 12 soccer players, and 13 basketball players. Statistical analyses, specifically ANOVA accompanied by Tukey’s post hoc comparisons, have been employed to discern significant differences among subgroups. While no noteworthy disparities among groups were observed in both COD-D and Agility-D when participants manipulated the balls using their hands, a marked superiority in performance emerged for soccer players when the balls were manipulated with their legs. Soccer players exhibited expedited responses compared to their basketball and handball counterparts when confronted with a visual stimulus during the Agility-R test (reduced Agility-R deficit). Furthermore, the Agility-D deficit underscored the heightened visual challenge to react in visual stimuli during dribbling in soccer. Independent of the type of ball handling, soccer players consistently demonstrated a diminished Agility-D deficit, affirming their superior visual ability. The performance in Agility-D further revealed that visual ability plays a pivotal role in influencing dribbling ability. The study posits that, for a comprehensive assessment of a player’s visual ability during running or dribbling, interpretations of both Agility-R deficit and Agility-D deficit are imperative. Consequently, the proposed indexes of Agility-R deficit and Agility-D deficit present valuable tools for evaluating players’ COD and Agility abilities during running or dibbling. However, the efficacy of these assessments in real-game situations remains undetermined, requiring further investigation.

“…Football is the most popular sport in the world and a high intensity team sport that requires a good amount of physical fitness. Footballers are also required to maintain high levels of aerobic and anaerobic conditioning, strength, Agility, muscle endurance and foot eye coordination [1] . From kinesiological analysis, football is contact sport with high physical demands.…”

Background:The ability to perform intense exercise is declined towards the second half of the game, as well as immediately after the most intense periods of the game such as during sprinting, jumping, etc. Suggesting that these actions may be particularly sensitive to fatigue development and injury risk. These data underline the importance of muscle endurance as an important component of fitness in football players. The frequent alteration of activities, numerous accelerations and decelerations, change of directions, and execution of various technical skills during a play contribute to higher injury rates in elite football players. Unpredictable events like twisting, and pivoting occur very commonly but there is a dearth of literature evaluating these fast components. Subjects and Methods:The correlational study consists of 43 male elite football players. Subjects were recruited through convenient sampling. They were screened as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. Agility was evaluated using the agility t-test. The best of three readings were taken. Followed by the warm-up protocol of 10 minutes was administered for the squat test. Lower extremity muscle endurance was checked using the squat test. Results: The moderate negative correlation was found between lower extremity muscle endurance and agility duration (r= -.456, p<0.001) that is as endurance decreases the performance of agility also reduces thereby increasing the t-test duration. Conclusion:The study concluded that there is moderate negative correlation between lower extremity muscle endurance and agility in male elite football players. As lower extremity muscle endurance increases, agility also improves thereby reducing the time required to complete agility t-test.

“…So, to be a successful player in cutting the ball, the inside, outside, and sole of the foot are used. As presented in the previous section, a soccer ball is still the most popular sport in the world [19], [20], and a high-intensity team sport that requires a good amount of physical and physical abilities. Dribbling speed, agility, and strength are among the high levels of aerobic and anaerobic conditioning that soccer players must develop and maintain in the wake of easing in the field performance.…”

“…For children, some are well skilled in ball control since the low age whereas others not. Due to this disparity in skills, soccer coaches must work in an integrated manner to ensure a structured and effective program simply known as technical training, and agility in players as the main components of soccer training [20]. Based on the results of observations of the school of a soccer ball at Yogyakarta State University, it has found that there are still many students who have not been able to play football properly, especially in the speed of dribbling [1], [7].…”

Background: One of the techniques used in football activities with the ball that must be mastered by players is the dribbling technique. Coaches are required to be more careful in choosing and applying a training method so that players can accomplish the exercises quickly and correctly. Purpose: The study was to determine the extent of the effect, if any, of technical training using the ball on the dribbling speed of 10-12 years old football players. Design/methodology/approach: The design employed in this study was the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design, while the population were soccer players aged 10-12 years at the SELABORA Football School, Yogyakarta State University. Of 27 soccer players were purposely selected to be a sample of the study. Retrieval of data using tests, with an instrument in the form of a dribbling test from the Bobby Charlton model has a validity of 0.973 and reliability of 0.864. The data were analyzed by using the t-test analysis through the prerequisite test for normality and homogeneity. Results: After addressing all data, results of hypothesis testing using t-test obtained t-calculated of 2.324 > t table with α = 0.05. By it, data implied that there is a significant difference between the data before and after being given treatment. The increase in the mean was evident because there was an increase of 0.85 from 18.2900 to 19.1367, with the cumulative sig equal to 0.028 < 0.05. Conclusion: It can be concluded that technical training using the ball has a significant effect of 4.44% on the dribbling speed with a significant improvement between the pre-and posttest results among football players aged 10-12 years and subsequently hypothesis posed is accepted.
