Abstract
This research aims to design a program for agility drills as an attempt to see its impact on agility and some speed abilities of junior soccer player. The researcher used the experimental method by design "pre-measurement - post-measurement" to one experimental set. And research sample was selected by intended way from juniors under 17 years of National Bank Club in Cairo and they were 23 players (8 defenders, 7 Midfielders, 8 attackers), and the place of applying the research experiment and pre and post-measurements was specified at the fields of National Bank Club in Giza district of soccer.The temporal scale of the program in the period from 07.24 to 09.29 / 2010 during (10) weeks of the preparation period, starting with the third week of 2010/2011 season. And the most important results were that the training program has a positive impact in the development speed and agility abilities under study in the play's (defense, midfield, offensive) lines, and the volume of variability in the post-measurement ranged between (6.269 -15.792). There is also a correlation statistically significant between the play's lines and the variables of starting speed from stability, and zig-zag running with the ball, speed movement (in the direction of the midfield and offensive), and an inverse significant relation in the direction (midfield and defense) in sprint variables, speed endurance, rebound running , and a correlation is not significant in the starting speed from movement, and running with the ball 30 meters, running with the ball between 10 cones.
