%X Problem Statement: Soccer is a game in which fatigue could influence player's performance. The aim of thepresent study was to evaluate the effect of fatigue, induced acutely, by a specifically soccer activities circuit onkicking velocity.Approach: Nine experienced male soccer players performed prior and after the implementation of an intensiveand intermittent exercise protocol maximal instep kicks.Results: Analysis of variance designs with repeated measures indicated a significant difference (p<0.05) in thekicking velocity before and after performing the circuit.Conclusions/Recommendations: The presentĄŻs results confirmed the initial hypothesis of the negative influenceof fatigue on velocity of the kicking soccer
