Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Football Goal-Kicking Skills Performance Assessment (Static). Timepoint: before and after intervention. Method of measurement: The Mor-Christian Football goal-kicking Test (23) is a widely used assessment for evaluating kicking ability in football, particularly focusing on accuracy. While it effectively measures the precision of kicks, especially for football attackers, it does not assess kicking power or speed—both critical elements of kicking performance. Speed, in particular, plays a vital role in determining scoring potential and overall performance, yet this test is limited to evaluating accuracy alone.	—

Measure	Time frame
Football Passing Skills. Timepoint: before and after intervention. Method of measurement: The football passing skill was assessed using the Mor and Christian test (1979). Participants performed passes from three distinct positions, each approximately 13.71 meters away from the target. The target consisted of two cones, each about 45.72 cm in height. An overall score was calculated as the mean of 12 attempts (4 trials from each position).	—
