EFFECT OF AUDIO-VISUAL TRAINING ON DRIBBLING SKILL OF YOUTH SOCCER PLAYERS IN MANIPUR
Keywords:
Audio-visual, Dribbling skill, and Youth Soccer Players.Abstract
The purpose of the study to investigate the effect of audio-visual training on the
dribbling skill of youth soccer players in Manipur. Sixty male soccer players (N=60), ages of
the subject range to 14-18 years, from different nearby clubs in Imphal West, Manipur, were
randomly divided into two groups viz., 30 experimental and 30 control. The subjects were
selected on the basis of their participation in football. The level of audio-visual was assessed
by Mor- Christian soccer ability skill test during pre-test, and post-test. Audio -visual training
was imparted to the experimental group for a period of 3 months, whereas the controlled
subjects did not participate in the said training program. The descriptive analysis and pair
sample ‘t’ test statistical techniques were used to determine the essential characteristic of the
data and significant differences of the pre and post-test of dribbling skills between the
experimental and control groups. The level of significance was set at 0.05. Significant
improvement was observed in the experimental group of audio-visual training on dribbling
skills of youth soccer players in pre- and post-mean comparison (t=4.85). However, no
significant improvement was found in the control group in dribbling skills of youth soccer
players in pre and post-mean comparison (t=1.84) at 0.05 confidence level. Therefore, the
audio-video training program is important to develop the dribbling skill performance of the
youth soccer players.
