This study aimed to investigate the acute effects of instructional video on kicking performance in young football players. 26 participants were divided into a control group (CG) and an instructional video group (IG). Kicking kinematic variables, including the length of the last step (LLS), distance between the support foot and the ball (DSB), speed of the kicking foot at ball contact (SKF), ball speed (BS), and BS/SKF ratio, were assessed before and after video presentation. The OpenPose was used for marker less pose estimation and data analysis. Statistical analysis revealed a significant increase in LLS in the IG after video presentation (p=0.044), while no significant differences were observed in other variables for both CG and IG. These findings suggest that video demonstrations with instructions can acutely improve the length of the last step in young football players. However, no immediate effects were observed on other analyzed variables. Further studies are warranted to explore the long-term effects of video-based training and assess kinematic variables in a more ecological setting. Overall, video-based instructions can be a valuable tool for enhancing kicking performance and optimizing training in young football players.
