Abstract

The aim of the research was to identify the extent to which the characteristic of strength, speed, and skill influences the accuracy of goal-scoring from set pieces in soccer. The researcher hypothesized that there is a relationship between strength, speed, and goal-scoring accuracy from set pieces in soccer. The researcher was forced to use a descriptive approach because it is the most consistent with the nature and requirements of the research. The researcher chose a sample that truly represents the original community and must be consistent with the random sampling method to achieve its objectives. The researcher selects the sample that best suits his research, based on his own assessment of the needs. The research sample included (10) players from the Qalaat Sukkar Sports Club, out of (24) football players at the club. This represents (41.66%) of the original community. To determine the most important tests related to the research topic, the researcher performed the following: (knee flexion and extension test in (20) seconds, goal-scoring accuracy test from set pieces). The researcher used the statistical package (SPSS) to analyze the research results.  The researcher concluded that there is a correlation between the strength characterized by speed and the skill of scoring accuracy in soccer set pieces. The research sample members scored high in the skill of scoring accuracy from soccer set pieces. The researcher recommends paying attention to the skill of scoring accuracy, especially from set pieces, and giving it a greater share in the curriculum for coaches and teachers
