Resumen

The aim of this study was to design and standardize a test to measure agility and speed in under-19 football players of the Iraqi Premier League clubs for the 2021/2022 season. Furthermore, the study aimed to establish benchmark scores and performance levels for the rolling agility test among footballers in Iraqi Premier League clubs for the specified season and age group. The researcher adopted the descriptive approach. The research community was selected in a deliberate way, which included 218 players from the Iraqi Premier League clubs under the age of 19 in football for the 2021/2022 sports season, representing 9 clubs in Baghdad. The final sample size consisted of 204 players, representing 93.58% of the original population. The research test has demonstrated its validity in measuring the speed of rolling agility performance. It was distributed moderately among the sample, indicating its capability to discern between high-level and low-level achievement among the participants. Additionally, the test has shown high reliability, stability, and objectivity coefficients, further validating its effectiveness as a measurement tool. The adoption of the test, identified as a variable for evaluating the training status of football players under the age of 19, by coaches is crucial. Coaches should adhere to the criteria established by research during the evaluation and selection process.
