Effect of specific soccer training on general soccer ability of high fit tribal soccer players

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of specific soccer training on General Soccer ability (volleying Skill) by using Mcdonald Soccer Test of high fit tribal soccer players. Ninety, high fit tribal Soccer players out of two hundred and seventy, 9th and 10th grade school level tribal Soccer players from Ergoda School parihati of Paschim Medinipur, District of West Bengal were randomly selected as the tribal subjects for this study. To ascertain the high fit tribal Soccer players, the AAHPER Youth Fitness Test was administered for two hundred and seventy tribal Soccer players separately in accordance with the instructions given in the test manual. The top ninety high fit tribal Soccer players in AAHP ER Youth Fitness Test were selected and further subdivided into three equal groups (N=30 in each group) on the basis of random sampling process namely `A`, `B` and `C` group, where group `A` and `B` were treated as experimental groups and group `C` were treated as control group. Under training with ball the Speed, Endurance, Agility and Strength activities with ball, Dynamic skill practice, Game practice and Deep pass training were assigned to group `A` while the Group `B` under training without ball the Speed, Endurance, Agility and Strength activities without ball, Static skill practice, Game practice and Deep pass training were assigned. No experimental treatments were administered to group `C` which were named and studied as control groups. A training programme of ten weeks, three days in a week i.e. Monday, Wednesday and Friday for high fit tribal Soccer players was administered in this study. A training schedule was prepared by the investigator with the help of supervisor, coaches and other experts. Analysis of covariance statistics was employed and the level of significance was set at 0.05 level. Training with ball showed significant effect of specific Soccer training on General Soccer ability (volleying Skill) by using Mcdonald Soccer Test of high fit tribal soccer players in Soccer playing ability.
