COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FOOT REACTION OF NATIONAL LEVEL WOMEN SOCCER PLAYERS OF DIFFERENT PLAYING POSITIONS IN MANIPUR
Abstract
Soccer is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. Soccer is a
ball game played on a rectangular grassy or artificial field with a goalpost at each end. The
objective of the game is to score by manoeuvring the ball into the opposing goal. (Dunning,
1999). The world's most widely played team sport is soccer which is specified by the player’s
skill of short sprints, rapids acceleration or deceleration, turning, jumping, kicking, and tackling
(Blasom et. al 1999), progressively high dynamics, direct number of one-on-one players, motor
preparation, mental preparation, technical in addition to the tactical skill of the players
(Bangsob and Krustrup,2008). Soccer is a difficult game that needs a high degree of physical
fitness and intelligence. Mental alertness speed, strength, agility, balance, and flexibility are
the fundamental qualities for all soccer players (Rink 1987). Sports scientists and sports
specialists focus on quality in place of quantity to release maximum achievement for training
procedures. Physical and Physiological also make up a player, the sports scientists are also
doing work to increase the knowledge of soccer players. Both physical and mental the players
make more knowledge all over the match. The needs of soccer players consist of many ways
physical activities joined with a formation of technical skill. (Bredley et. al. 2009; Wallace and
Norton,2014).
