Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Shuttle Run test

    Agility Shuttle Run is a test of agility, in which the participant runs back and forth between two parallel lines as fast as possible, picking up blocks of wood, for a total of 120 ft. A shuttle run time below four seconds is generally considered great, with the best players closer to the 3.8-second range, the total time is 4 seconds.

    6 weeks

  • 12 min run test

    Place markers at set intervals around the track to aid in measuring the completed distance. Participants run for 12 minutes, and the total distance covered is recorded.

    6 weeks

  • Speed

    Set out a series of markers in a straight line at 0, 10, 20 and 30m. The player taking the test stands at the start, and the person timing stands on the 10m mark. On command, the player sprints through the 10m mark and the timer records the time they pass the marker. Repeat for 10m, and then do twice for 20m and 30m.

    6 weeks

  • Vertical jump

    The simplest method to measure an athlete's vertical jump is to get the athlete to reach up against a flat wall, with a flat surface under his/her feet and mark off the highest point he/she can reach flat-footed

    6 weeks

  • Mcdonald Soccer skill test

    A soccer ball is placed on a line, marked 9 feet from the wall. On the signal, "Go," the player kicks the ball against the wall as many times as possible in 30 seconds. The test score is the highest total of any three trials.

    6 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Interventional Group

EXPERIMENTAL

1. Warm up and cool down (10 minutes before physical activity) 2. Players will be given the SAQ training which includes * High Knees with Mini Hurdles. * 30 Yard Sprint. * Agility Ring Hops. * Ladder 2 in 2 out. * Depth Jumps. * Overhead Ball Drop Reaction Drill

Other: SAQ training

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Players in this group did not undergo any interventional Programme rather than their daily routine work which includes: * Dumbbell squat * Dumbbell bicep arm curl * Burpee pull up * Medicine ball pushups * Sprints * HIIT on treadmill

Interventions

interventions listed above were applied on the players which will improve running mechanics and impove speed power and agility in football players

Also known as: High knee with mini hurdles, depth jumps, 30 yard sprint, Agility rings hops, Overhead ball drop
