Abstract
Soccer is a very popular sports for youth and adults in Thailand and worldwide. At present, Thailand has a professional soccer league and international teams. Soccer is an intermittent exercise energetically demanding game. The average distance covered by professional soccer players is about 10 to 12 kilometers, so endurance training is one of the most important training for soccer players. Small-sided game is an aerobic soccerspecific training. This article is a collection of information on different small sided game training. The physiological effects of a small sided games can be adjusted to specific needs by altering the pitch area, numbers of player, goalkeepers, rule modification and game duration inclusion. In general, exercise intensity is increased with the concurrent reduction in numbers of player and increase in relative pitch area per player.
