Reliable information on young football players’ body and functional capacities change plays an important role in their training process. Control of training process and athletes’ body condition during various stages of their preparation process facilitates gathering necessary information. Pedagogical control of athletes’ training is one of the methods to establish the level of their preparedness, the important task of it being evaluation of young football players’ motor skills. In Kazakhstan football schools with numerous young players this control is very important, as attention to the change of the athletes’ body and functional capacity change during the training process is not yet sufficient. The purpose of this study was to perform evaluation on young football players’ (aged 16-17) physical and special technical preparedness indices change during the annual training cycle using the methods of pedagogical control. Material and methods. 30 young football players (aged 16-17) were tested, their average height was 176.8±5.6 cm, average body mass was 71.9±6.7 kg, BMI was 23.2±1.7. Three tests on physical and technical preparedness were carried out in December, April and June. Body fitness level was established using Eurofit testing battery. Results and discussion. The process of young football players’ training has a complex character. It became clear that coaches of the tested athletes within the training process were more focused in group and individual motor actions of the players. At the beginning of the preparatory period, the end of it and during the competitive period, weekly training load respectively amounted in 830, 800 and 790 min. Approach to the competitive period was marked by diminished amount in team actions with increased number of group and individual actions. Increase in football players’ fitness indices in line with special technical preparedness indices level during yearly training cycle was observed. Conclusion. Characteristic feature of young football players’ training program was the focus on special preparatory actions, the amount of which during the time from the beginning of preparatory to the middle of competitive was 59.0, 66.2 and 69.6 % from total training load, accordingly. Indices of special technical preparedness during training cycle had a statistically significant increase. Improved results of young football players’ specific and non-specific physical and technical training exercises during annual training cycle might serve as a criterion for future pedagogical evaluation of athletes’ excellence.
