Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to determine the effect of agility training on selected football techniques of Mehal Meda Kale Hiwot football project players. To achieve the purpose, Quasi-Experimental design was used. Total experiment population are 30 male football project players of Kale Hiwot were taken census as a sample study their age were 12-13 years. Experimental group (n = 15) performed agility training three days per a week for 10 weeks on Illinois agility run, zig-zag run, 505 agility drill, T-drill and hexagonal obstacle and Control group (n = 15) however, did not perform this selected fitness training, both groups undergone normal football training program; and also both groups had taken pre and post-tests. So, all subjects participated in 5 selected football skill performance tests inside of foot pass, figure 8 dribbling, full instep shooting, instep juggling and anybody part ball control without hands. The data was analyzed and compared with the help of statistical procedures in which arithmetic mean, standard deviation and paired t test was used. The level of p ≤ 0.05 considered as significant level. The result showed that on passing test control group MD = .46667 & P = .089 while experimental MD = 4.4 & P = .000, dribbling test control MD = .93333 & P = 0.29 & whereas experimental MD = 6.13333 & P = .000, shooting test control group MD = .33333 & p = 0.136 while experimental group MD = 2.86667 & p = .000, juggling test control group MD = .40000 & p = .028 while experimental group MD = 7.26667 & p = .000 and ball controlling test control group MD = .73333 & P = 0.06 while experimental MD = 2.93333 & P = .000. Agility training for 10 weeks is more effective in increasing the passing, dribbling, shooting, juggling and ball controlling of Mehal Meda Kale Hiwot male football project players. Generally, the present study concluded that agility training had a significant effect on Mehal Meda Kale Hiwot football project players’ football techniques performance through the selected football techniques tests.
