dc.description.abstract	The aim of the recent study was to investigate “effects of 10 weeks soccer specific circuit training on speed, agility and flexibilityof u-15 female football project trainers”. In order to achieve the intended objective Experimental design is implemented. For this study 30 Chagni town U-15 female football project players, who had been fulfilled the health history questionnaire are included as the study sample, and grouped to Experimental Group (EG) and Control Group (CG), in the first group EG (N=15), mean age 13.52 years old players are assigned randomly to the treatment condition and followed ten week intervention program for three days per week, 60 minute per session. They were engaged in soccer specific speed, agility and flexibility on Circuit exercise. While the other section CG (N=15) players of corresponding age, mean 13.72 years also assigned to serve as control group and continue their regular training. The study physical fitness variables are soccer specific speed, agility, and flexibility, to see the actual changes, 35 meter run test, T-test, Sit and reach test used as measuring tool. Paired sample t-test is used to analyze the data, in line to this level of significance was set at p<0.05. Results showed EG have significantly improved speed performance, pre 5.88 ± 0.16s to post5.42 ± 0.99(p=0.00), and a significant improvement in agility, pre 11.11 ± 0.43s to post 10.35 ± 0.47s (p=0.00). Moreover they also showed an improvement in flexibility, pre 6.32 ± 1.25cm to post 7.58 ± 1.37cm (p=0.00), major finding in the study is the significant improvement on speed, agility and flexibility in the intervention group. This is due to the effect of the training program they were engaged in, and the investigator noticed that the suggested training program has positive effect on developing and promoting the speed, agility and flexibility of football players.	en_US
