Objective of the study was to develop and test benefits of a special strength training model for touch pass excellence in elite football with the relevant field zone control trainings using special strength training machines. Methods and structure of the study. The educational experiment was carried out at the premises of Lesgaft National State University of Physical Education, Sport and Health with the support from Specialized Children and Youth Sports School of Olympic Reserve No. 1 of the Admiralteysky District of St. Petersburg. The field zone control elements in the training model were mastered using a special training ground (`stand`) that includes a standard futsal goal divided into 9 identical squares plus three 2x2m field zones around the ground center 5m afar from the goal. The touch pass trainings were run at low and high speeds with the touch passes varied by the zones and levels. Results and conclusions. The research results indicated a direct correlation between the quantitative, parametric, assessment of the level of development of special strength fitness of the leading muscle groups of the lower limbs and the technical fitness improvement strategy chosen by a qualified football player. A correlation analysis under the study found the strongest correlation between the abductor muscle groups` maximal strength test rates and successful top-level touch passes; plus a high correlation between the standing long jump test rates and the abductor muscle groups` maximal strength test rates. We also found a strong correlation between the adductor muscle groups` strength and successful touch passes - that was interpreted as indicative of the new training model being beneficial. Generally, success of any sport training model may be rated by the percentages of successful technical-tactical actions in a practical game. In this particular study, we had to model the target technical-tactical actions for the purposes of fair comparative analysis on the special training ground to offer the same number of test attempts to every player in the model testing experiment.
