Relationship of Orientation and Differentiation Ability to Kicking Accuracy in Soccer

In today's ever advancing the professionally competitiveness best performance in sports can be made only through a systematic planned, executed and controlled training system, base on scientific of sports training. The sports scientists and the physiologist have been of the view that human capacity of performance among athletes had its limits in the method if standard of efficiency. But this belief has proved false and the barriers of performance have been suspended by the athletes as a result of continued improvement in the techniques method of training and coaching. Differentiation ability enable the sports man Kato perceive micro-differences regarding the temporal, dynamic and spatial aspects of movement execution. It is to be particularly stressed when the aim to achieve high level of mastery over sports movements and their effective application in sports competitions. The ability to execute highly skilful movements with hand feet, and head is also a special type of differentiation ability. Orientation ability is the perception of position and movement motor action to change the body position and movement, of his own and/or of a moving object (opponent, ball, and partner) with regards to space. The developing tendencies in international sports, especially in team games, are identified as the increase in the tempo, tougher body game and gates variability in technique and tactics. The purpose of this study was to determine relationship of selected Coordinative abilities to kicking accuracy in football. 50 inter-college male football players of Chajju Ram Memorial Jat P.G. College Hisar were selected as subjects for this study. The necessary data was collected by administering various Coordinative abilities namely orientation ability and differention ability and for determination of kicking ability Harban Singh Dribbling and goal shooting test was administered. To find out significant relationship of two Coordinative abilities to kicking accuracy product moment correlation was employed. For testing hypothesis the level significant was set at .05. There was significant relationship between kicking accuracy and Coordinative abilities of Football players as the calculated value of orientation ability (0.29) and Differentiationability (0.29) was greater than the tabulated value (0.23) at 0.5 level of confidence.
