Abstract
The objective of the research was to study and compare the effect of the traditional Thai game with the core muscle training program on the speed and agility of male soccer players in upper primary schools. The sample group applying the purposive sampling method consisted of 36 male soccer players from Chumchonsampraw School, Udonthani Province. The experimental group (n = 18), was trained with the Traditional Thai Game with Core Muscle Training program, and the control group (n = 18) was trained according to a normal football program for 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The speed test was determined by using a run of 40 meters and agility by using SEMO Agility Test. All parameters were measured before, after the 4th week and after the 8th week, respectively. The data were analyzed by using percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and One-way analysis of variance with repeated measures. LSD was compared at the statistical significance level at p<.05. The results showed that the speed and agility of the experimental group after training on week 8th were significantly different at p<.05 and the control group after training on week 8th were not significantly different at p<.05. This research suggests that Traditional Thai Game with Core Muscle Training program, it was found that the speed and agility were different.
