The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of skill-based drill training modules on selected physical fitness parameters of football players in the Lucknow region. A total of 40 male football players aged 16-20 were selected using random sampling and divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group underwent an 8-week skill-based drill training program designed to enhance agility, speed, endurance, and coordination, while the control group followed their regular training routines. Pre- and post-test assessments were conducted using standardized fitness tests to evaluate changes in physical parameters. Statistical analysis revealed significant improvements in the experimental group in comparison to the control group across several fitness measures. The findings suggest that structured skill-based drill training modules can be highly effective in improving physical fitness attributes that are critical for football performance.
