A study on fitness profiles of football players
Author(s): Vikas
Abstract:The game of football is both an art anda science. It involves techniques of running, passing, kicking, tackling, blocking, heading, juggling and dribbling. Often all these activities have to be performed at great speed. Though these individual skills are very important but it should not be forgotten that it is a team game and the players have to work together in offence or defense. Therefore a player must develop his skills and understanding for his contribution as per the demands of the game. The game of football contains physical challenges. Though two players may be equal in their skills but because of different physical and mental response, there can be much difference in their performance. A player must be quick in assessing a situation and in his response. A forward has to decide between pass and shot, defender between marking and covering and a goalkeeper whether to defend, keep standing at the goal or to run forward or sideways.
