The purpose of this study is to identify the level of knowledge among coaches of youth women’s football of the Selangor State Sports School (SSS) and the issues and challenges faced in the implementation of strength and physical conditioning training. Based on the objectives of the study a model of strength and physical conditioning training will be propose to women’s football team. This research is using evolved grounded theory or EGT which was introduced by Strauss and Corbin (2007). 14 observations on the training session of women’s football team of the Selangor State Sports School (SSS) are conducted. This followed by four interview sessions with four coaches in charge of the training of women’s football team of SSS and also analysis of related documents. The findings of the study highlight four important themes in shaping the knowledge model of the implementation of strength and physical conditioning training of youth women’s football which are sources of knowledge, content of knowledge, training suitability and competition demand as well as training facilities and equipment. These four themes are divided into other requirements which serve as the basic guidance for coaches. In conclusion, this model may assist the coaches of women’s football to improve their knowledge on strength and physical conditioning training in order to implement them into practice.
