ABSTRACT
This study is aimed at :
1. Obtaining some biokinmatic variables during the precise, distance instep shooting from various area and in front of the defensive wall.
2. Knowing the relationship between some biokinmatic variables and the precise, distant instep shooting from various areas.
It is worth bearing in mind that that the researcher has used the descriptive method in this research The research sample is made up of (19) players (15) of whom have been used to design the test whereas the remaining (4) have been used within the research experiment where each of the four players has made (6) shooting attempts from each of the three directions and has been given (5)marks as a maximum and (zero)as a minimum and all the shooting attempts conducted have been filmed and the best one has been analyzed , furthermore, the camera position and its height have been pinpointed accurately in relation to the shooting point , then the surveying test has been conducted and followed by the main test of the research sample before processing the data statistically by using the Arithmetic means, standard deviation and simple correlation coefficient (Pearson) as research statistical methods.
The researchers have reached to the following conclusions:
1- There has been a positive correlation between the following two variables (The ankle angle of the striking leg during the collision stage in the right direction and the angular velocity of the body in the middle ).
2- The absence of any significant correlation relationship of the absorption and striking stages of the research variables .
Finally the researchers has made the following recommendations:
The emphasis on the study of the biokinematic variables the researcher have obtained from their research work in order to utilize them in soccer teaching and training processes.

One hundred and seventy seven coaches representing of 85.8% of the population were selected to represent the investigated sample while (31) coaches representing 14.9% of the population were chosen as the implementation group. Thus, the researchers relayed on the stated percentages indicated in the ratio of representation of the descriptive population for the implementation.
The researchers reached the following conclusions
• A direct significant correlation exists between psycho-cognitive attitude towards mental training and the locus of control among the couches with internal control.
The researchers recommend that more interest should be placed on psycho-cognitive attitude towards mental training which can be achieved through scientific and psychological courses aiming to expound the importance of mental training and its role to prepare the players in spot competitions.

The training profession is a profession which requires more diverse
positions and the process of evaluation is subject to many considerations
when sentencing , And the readiness of the abilities and qualities of
personal and psychological, The process of evaluating the coach differ
from the administrative and governance, the teacher and supervisor of
sports and sports specialist. Hence the need to coach understands the
foundations of scientific knowledge, information and skills necessary for
the success of the training process so that it can carry out its duties,
responsibilities and functions, this does not affect only if coach To
adequate vocational training makes it able to do what needed done
multiple tasks, This is proof that the training process, developing training
programmes based on scientific studies The psychological in accordance
with the requirements of the different levels of achievement, whether
digital or skill.The aim of the research is to build a correct skills training
trainers sports. The aim of the research is to build a correct skills training
trainers sports, The curriculum has been used in a descriptive survey to
reach the objectives of has been appointed research trainers some

Dohuk, Irbil, Kirkuk, Nineveh), the number (265) trainers from different
games collective and individual, research The use of personal interview
and analysis of the content and means of the questionnaire to gather
information. Through the application of statistical and treatments for
scientific measure has been reached, as the final measure, which contains
seven axes and (75) paragraph covering these themes.
