Abstract

Objective: To explore the relationship between specialised physical quality and repeated sprinting ability of university football players, and to provide theoretical basis for improving repeated sprinting ability and sports level of university football players. Methods: 29 athletes from the Chizhou University varsity football team were selected as test subjects using the method of intentional sampling to measure their specialised physical fitness and repeated sprinting ability, and Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were used to explore the relationship between specialised physical fitness and repeated sprinting ability. Results: The YO-YO test, 5*25 m run, 30 m run and T-run had different degrees of positive or negative correlation with RSAbest and RSAmean in the specialised physical fitness. 67.4% of the maximal recurrent sprinting ability could be explained by the YO-YO test, 5*25 m run, 30 m run and T-run; 61.2% of the average recurrent sprinting ability could be explained by the YO-YO test, 5*25 m run and 30 m run. 61.2% of average repeated sprinting ability. Conclusion: Specialised physical fitness of university football players is related to repeated sprinting ability, and improving specialised physical fitness is conducive to enhancing repeated sprinting ability of football players.
