The Dean of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences for Women at the University of Baghdad, Professor Dr. Fatima Abd Malih, chaired the examination of the doctoral dissertation titled (The Effect of Exercises Using Aids with Varied Training Intensity Methods on Developing Certain Physical and Motor Abilities and the Accuracy of Passing and Shooting Skills in Futsal Players), presented by the researcher Diana Haider Ghadhban.
The examination committee included: Prof. Dr. Esraa Fouad Saleh (member), Prof. Dr. Faris Sami Youssef (member), Asst. Prof. Dr. Ishraq Ghaleb Ouda (member), Asst. Prof. Dr. Riyadh Muzhir Khuraibet from Al-Mustansiriyah University (external member), and Prof. Dr. Abeer Dakhel Hatem (supervisor).
The study aimed to design exercises using aids with varied training intensity methods to develop specific physical and motor abilities, as well as the accuracy of passing and shooting skills, in futsal players. It also sought to identify the effect of these exercises on improving the accuracy of the two skills.
The researcher concluded that the applied exercises proved effective in enhancing all the studied physical, motor, and skill-related variables. There was a significant improvement in speed, strength, and explosive power, indicating the efficiency of high-intensity exercises. A noticeable decrease was also observed in sprint time and speed endurance, reflecting the effectiveness of the exercises in enhancing both aerobic and anaerobic performance. Additionally, there was a clear improvement in agility and coordination, showing the diversity and comprehensiveness of the motor exercises, along with a marked increase in passing and shooting accuracy.
The researcher recommended adopting varied training intensity methods such as circuit, interval, and repetitive training in futsal training programs; utilizing modern aids appropriate for the players’ age group to increase training effectiveness and motivation; integrating physical and skill exercises within one training session while considering intensity progression to improve overall performance; focusing on the accuracy of fundamental skills such as passing and shooting; conducting periodic tests (pre-, mid-, and post-evaluations) to assess player development and adjust training programs accordingly; and carrying out future research on different age groups using varied training tools to compare effectiveness.
This study contributes to achieving one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) — specifically, Goal 4: Quality Education.
