Abstract
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of short period FIFA 11+ exercise, which used as a physical fitness improvement program for young amateur football players. This one group experimental study involving 13 football players as subjects (ages 14.92 + 0.77 years, weight 55.23 + 9.62 kg, height 1.64 + 0.06 meters, BMI 20.42 + 2.71 kg/m2). Subjects underwent FIFA 11+ exercises three times per week for four weeks. Measurements of physical fitness components include core strength, leg strength, leg power, speed, and agility performed before and after FIFA 11+ intervention. Changes in measurement results (pre and post-test) were analyzed using a paired t-test (p <0.05). The results showed that the mean subjects experienced a significant increase in the components of the core strength (p = 0.004), leg strength (p = 0.043), and leg power (p = 0.002). The results of this study indicate that a short period of FIFA 11+ training is useful and can be used as an alternative program to improve physical fitness for young football players.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 02 April’21 Page: 207-212
