The study results showed that there are statistically significant differences due to the effect of the training program on developing physical fitness and skills between the two pre and post - tests for the experimental group and for the pretest. Also, the results showed that there are statistical differences between all tests of physical fitness elements and skills of the two groups but for the two experimental groups. In light of the study findings, the researcher recommends linking the physical performance and motor skills when developing the content of the training program for junior football players, and paying attention to the quality of training and physical skill (after) learning journey through the elements of the physical fitness training elements and skill harmonic capacity.
