The sixty district level football players were selected randomly as subjects from different schools of Vadodara, Gujarat. The groups were from 16 to 19 years of age; these subjects were further divided into three groups of 20 players each, and the groups were called Experimental group I=20, Experimental group II=20 and the Control group=20. The purpose of the study was to know the effects of the study on the development of district level football players of schools. METHODS: - Subjects were tested under pre-test on Aapher youth fitness test and collected pre-test data, Later both experimental group were given specific training i:e Experimental group I – Fartlek training, Experimental group II- Interval training and Control Group- No training, once the trainings was completed the subjects were tested again under post-test and the data was collected for analysis and interpretation. FINDINGS:- 1. The calculated F-value of adjusted mean was 68.89, which was significant at 0.05 levels. 2. The calculated F-value of adjusted mean was 369.52, which was significant at 0.05 levels as it was greater than tabulated F value at 0.05 levels. CONCLUSION:-1. After analyzing ANCOVA and LSD post hoc test for muscular strength it was observed that there was a significant improvement in the muscular strength of the subject of both the Experimental groups i.e. fartlek training group and interval training group comparatively control group. 2. After analyzing ANCOVA and LSD post hoc test for strength endurance it was observed that there was a significant improvement in the strength endurance of the subject of both the Experimental groups i.e. fartlek training group and interval training group comparatively control group.
