The article presents the results of the study of the influence of additional football lesson on secondary school students`
morphofunctional indicators and the level of somatic health according to the method of Apanasenko G.L.
Analyzing the studies among secondary school kids we saw that the level of their somatic health is lower than the average.
Which shows the necessity of implementing some additional programs to encourage kids to visit various sports sections [2, 8, 9].
The main goal of the football lessons in schools is to enhance the kids health, also to give knowledge and practical skills
for their daily life. Football lessons should promote the development of motor qualities (fastness, strength, endurance, agility and
flexibility), increase mental and physical efficiency, develop interest and habit for a regular independent exercises with different kinds
of physical exercises (including football) and harmonious development of the student's personality [10, 7, 3].
The football lesson in secondary schools was implemented on the basis of an agreement between the Football Federation
of Ukraine and the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, concluded March 24, 2001 [10, 11].
Unfortunately, this implementation met a wave of criticism and concerns from the side of various specialists. All this has led
to the fact that this innovation has become selective and only a small number of schools have introduced the football lesson in their
program [12, 11].
This study confirms the positive impact of the additional football lessons on all morphological indicators of secondary
school students. 80% of boys and 20% of girls, who were engaged and regularly attending additional football lessons, have improved
their somatic health.
