The effect of specific exercises according to the motor path on the creative motor abilities (motor fluency) in football for juniors

Abstract

The study aims to:

• Designing specific exercises based on the motor path to develop motor fluency in soccer for juniors .
• Detecting the differences between the experimental group and the control group in the results of the post-test .

The researcher used the experimental method. The research community consisted of Salah Al-Din Sports Club junior players aged (14-16) years, totaling (40) players. The research sample consisted of (30) players representing (75%) of the original community. They were randomly divided by lottery into two experimental groups, with (15) players in each group. The researcher used the experimental design called the randomly selected equivalent groups design with tightly controlled pre- and post-tests. The data obtained were processed using the statistical package (SPSS).

The researcher, in cooperation with the trainer and the assistant work team, began implementing the educational units on Saturday, February 1, 2025, until Wednesday, April 23, 2025. The educational units were applied to the research sample, where specific exercises were used according to the motor path on the experimental group. Then, the post-tests were conducted for the experimental and control groups after completing the implementation of the educational units, under the same conditions in which the pre-tests were conducted in terms of place, devices, tools, and implementation method.
