The influence of anaerobic and aerobic fitness on the technical skill ability of national elite male under-18 African soccer players.

M. Tech. Clinical Technology. / Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. Elite level soccer players cover about 10 km during a 90-minute game. Although running is the predominant activity in soccer, explosive movements such as sprinting, jumping and kicking are important for successful performance. The aims of this study were to determine the technical skill ability, aerobic and anaerobic fitness of the players; determine whether a relationship exists between the technical skill ability and aerobic and anaerobic fitness; and determine whether a relationship exists between team ranking order and these variables.
