    The objective of this research was to determine the incidence of the technical fundamentals of soccer on the agility of students in the second year of the General Unified High School of the Juan León Mera Educational Unit “La Salle”. The starting point was the recognition that agility, understood as the ability to change direction with speed and control, is a key quality in the physical development of adolescents, and that it can be effectively stimulated through technical fundamentals such as passing, driving, receiving and dribbling. The study was framed in a quantitative approach, with a pre-experimental design and explanatory scope. We worked with a sample of 30 students (14 men and 16 women), to whom the Illinois Test was applied as an evaluation instrument before and after a six-week pedagogical intervention based on soccer technical exercises. This intervention was carried out during regular Physical Education classes, with two weekly sessions. The results showed a significant improvement in the times obtained in the post-test, which evidences the positive effect of the program on the agility capacity. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test confirmed significant differences between the initial and final levels, thus validating the hypothesis. In conclusions, the implementation of soccer technical fundamentals in school contexts represents an effective strategy to enhance students' agility. It is recommended to incorporate this approach into curricular planning, promoting the integral development of students through active, technical and contextualized methods that respond to both physical and formative objectives.
