The Effectiveness of “Small, Medium and Big Games” Training on Cardiovascular Endurance among University Football Players

Open access
This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of “Small, Medium and Big Games” training on cardiovascular endurance among football players. 30 university football players were divided into 2 groups (treatment group, N = 15; control group, N = 15). Participants underwent Yoyo Intermittent Recovery test before and after six weeks of training intervention. Results showed that the treatment group scored significantly greater level of cardiovascular endurance compared to the control group. Future studies are needed on the volume, frequency and intensity to be applied in the “Small, Medium and Big Games” training.
