Abstract

For years soccer training programs were not specific, and improve technical and analytical exercises were used physical and athletic. The objective of the study was to assess the effects of a training program with small-sided games, over the technique and the physical condition in young footballers. Thirty-six players (12,69±0,48 years old; 39,77±6,20 kg; 146,31±6,36 cm) developed fifteen sessions based on reduced football games (2 vs 2, 4 vs 4 and 8 vs 8). These activities lasted 40 minutes of the session and were performed 2 times a week. The footballer was evaluated twice (pre-test and post-test) through 8 field test: run with the ball, run with the ball and turn, dribbling, header, shot on goal, aerobic resistance, horizontal jump and agility. The statistical analysis by Student's t test reflected significant improvements in driving and dribbling (p≤0,01). Respect to physical variables there were significant improvements in agility and resistance (p≤0,05). The small-sided games are an effective stimulus to improve the execution of certain technical gestures and elements of the physical condition in young players. Use small-sided game can make your time and increase the specificity of the intervention.
