Abstract
Identifying the impact of psychomotor exercises on the skill performance of players at the Espanyol Academy aged 16-18 years. The researchers opted to rely on exercises to develop skill performance, as the psychological aspect affects the player’s mindset, which in turn reflects on the player’s overall performance and skill performance in particular. The researchers decided to use psychomotor exercises and adopted the experimental method to align with the nature of the research. The sample consisted of 24 players from the Espanyol Academy, divided into two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The control group received traditional exercises, while the experimental group underwent the training program. Pre-tests were conducted for both groups, followed by the implementation of the training program with the experimental group over 24 training units. At the end of the study, post-tests were conducted, and all data were subjected to statistical analysis to derive reliable results. The study concluded that psychological-motor exercises have a statistically significant positive effect on enhancing the skill performance of Espanyol Academy players. This approach is based on the integrative combination of the motor-skill component and the cognitive-psychological component thru intelligent training scenarios that simulate the pressures and realities of matches, thereby developing their psychological aspect.
