摘要：To excel in football, speed and agility are the key elements of fitness. Thus, some combinations of strength, power and plyometric training have been applied in order to enhance both components. There are some studies that found the positive correlations between explosive strength with both speed and agility components that led to the finding which suggested that improving muscle strength and power may help to turn these changes into reducing in time for sprinting and the ability to change direction for athletes. However, the studies about this relationship on youth football athletes have been limited especially for youth football athletes in Malaysia. Thus, this study aimed embarking to discover the correlation between explosive strength with speed and agility among U-12 football athletes in Malaysia. This study was divided into three tests which included standing broad jump, 30m sprint and 10m agility shuttle test. Twenty-six U12 elite football players were equally assigned in this study. This study uses a correlational test design which is Pearson Correlation to evaluate the relationship between standing broad jump with 30m sprint and 10m agility shuttle test. The result for correlation between standing broad jump and 30m sprint shown a non-significant correlation, (r=-.368, p=.064) while the result for correlation between standing broad jump and 10m agility shuttle test shown a significant correlation, (r=-.570, p=.002). Overall, this research highlighted that agility was affected by explosive strength while sprint was not affected by explosive strength among U12 football players in Malaysia.
