Methods
100 university volunteers in elementary class 1-3 soccer practitioners, aged 19.2±2.1 years, were evaluated by a battery of tests in body composition, body function, and physical fitness. The results were compared with the literary data, and the experiment went through a mathematical, statistical method to separate the soccer intervention and conduct empirical research on physical health.
Results
After the 18-week elective course intervention, the 50m and 1000m sprint results changed significantly, especially the 1000m sprint performance greatly improved; the difference was significant (P<0.01).
