ABSTRACT

This research is based on the fact that one aspect of soccer is the physical fitness level of players. This study reviews the extent of the level of physical fitness in soccer athletes. The research was conducted using a quantitative descriptive approach. The sample in this study consisted of 18 soccer players, whose physical abilities were measured through: 1) standing broad jump to measure leg muscle explosiveness, 2) upright jump test to measure leg muscle endurance for 30 seconds, 3) dodge run test to measure agility, and 4) bleep test to measure aerobic endurance. The data analysis technique used quantitative descriptive analysis with the Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) program version 29.0. Based on the results of the study, it was found that: 1) the level of agility of soccer players averaged 25.13 seconds, indicating a moderate level; 2) the explosive power of the leg muscles, with an average value of 219 cm, shows good potential; 3) strength endurance through the upright jump test for 30 seconds results in an average of 20 jumps with a standard deviation of 5.59, which is in the moderate category; and 4) the results of the bleep test show an average Maximum Oxygen Volume (VO₂Max) value of 32.9, indicating most players fall into the moderate to less category in aerobic endurance. In this study, the physical condition of soccer players shows strength in several areas but still requires improvement in other areas through strategically designed training. The importance of continuous evaluation and monitoring of players' physical condition is highlighted to design effective training programs aimed at enhancing players' physical performance and overall performance on the field.
