Abstract

This study aimed to identify the role of feedback in improving the performance of selected tactical skills among soccer players. A one-group pre-test/post-test experimental procedure was applied to a sample of 30 players randomly selected from the Mouloudia Bouira club. Four basic tactical skill domains were assessed before and after the feedback-based training period: knowledge of ball movements, behavior in changing situations, knowledge of others (teammates and opponents), and positioning and decision-making. Immediate auditory and visual feedback was systematically provided during training, and video-based review was used to support error correction. The results showed statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-tests in favor of the post-test for all four tactical domains (calculated t-values of 35.67, 22.64, 34.64, and 21.45, respectively; p < .05), indicating that systematic feedback led to a marked improvement in tactical skill performance. These findings are consistent with contemporary motor learning research demonstrating that augmented feedback—particularly immediate, informative feedback supported by video technology—accelerates the acquisition of complex sport skills. The study recommends activating video technology in tactical preparation, developing integrated programs for comprehensive player preparation, and using varied feedback techniques to correct errors and deficiencies in tactical training.
