The research emphasizes the significance of utilizing playing style to enhance motor skills, handling, and scoring abilities in youth football. This, in turn, may lead to accelerated and more substantial learning outcomes for coaches, optimizing time and effort. The study aims to investigate the impact of playing style on the development of motor skills, handling, and scoring abilities in youth football. The research sample was selected from youth players at the specialized center in Al-Batha district, affiliated with the Sports and School Activity Directorate, Thi Qar Education Directorate for the year 2022-2023. The researchers employed the experimental method with two equivalent groups, the control group using the coach's style and the experimental group using the playing style.Key findings indicate the superiority of the experimental group, implementing the playing style, in developing motor skills, handling, and scoring abilities in youth football compared to the control group employing the coach's style. The researchers recommend further research and studies using playing style, comparing it with other instructional methods in individual and team sports and activities.
