摘要：The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of functional balance training for six weeks on young soccer players on agility and vertical jump performance. 32 licensed male amateur soccer players voluntarily participated in the study. The participants were separated into groups such as balance training group (n=16) and control group (n = 16). The training group continued the static and dynamic balance training and routine soccer training for six weeks, 3 days a week, and for 40 minutes a day. The control group continued only routine soccer practice during the six-week period. All groups were subjected to dynamic balance, agility and vertical jump tests one week earlier than the study and after six weeks of dynamic balance training. At the end of the study, Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon Signed Ranks tests were used to compare the difference between the training and control groups and to compare agility, vertical jump and balance skill parameters with the aim of determining the group in which the difference occurred. At the end of six weeks, there was no difference between the agility and vertical jump values of the control group, while there was a statistically significant difference of 2.81% (p 0.05) It was found in the study carried out that static and dynamic equilibrium training for 6 weeks improved soccer players’ agility and explosive power performance. Balance training should be used as a supportive training for football training. Key Words: Soccer, Explosive Power, Postural Stability, Change of Direction
