BACKGROUND: This study explored the impact of running technique training on change of direction (COD) speed in young soccer players across the U11, U13, and U18 age categories. METHODS: Eighty-nine players participated and were divided into experimental (COD training [CODT]) and control (CON) groups in each category. The CODT group underwent a 4-week training program, conducted twice a week for fifteen minutes before regular training sessions. Pre- and post-testing used the 505 and Pro-Agility (5-10-5) tests. RESULTS: Results indicated significant improvements for CODT U11 players in the 505 Test on the right foot (P=0.04, d=0.48) and the 5-10-5 Test (P<0.001, d=0.86). The U13 CODT players improved in the 5-10-5 Test (P<0.001, d=0.54), as well as the CODT U18 (P=0.001, d=1.04). Significant differences between CODT and CON groups were observed in the U11 category in the 5-10-5 Test. CONCLUSIONS: The study concludes that running technique training before regular soccer sessions enhances COD speed, particularly in U11 and U18 players.
