Improving the physical properties during sports practice leads to a higher level of training of the organism, i. e. it is able to bear bigger loads. All the technical and tactical actions of football can be established upon the basis of physical condition. The main thing in football is exploding strength and endurance. With their help players can easily deal with all the situations occurring during the game.
With developing the physical abilities in deaf people the first thing improved is their health status and life tonus. They do not differ from the other people in the level of physical development but their ability for practicing sports is lower.They do not have a facility of their own and the only place they can practice sports is the special school fo people with impaired hearing.
In connection to the exposition made and the preparation of the national football team of deaf people and its participation at the First European Championship of Minifootball a certain goal is established. It is to prepare the competitors in physical aspect and to trace dynamics of development of certain physical qualities.
We can conclude that the physical condition of deaf people could be improved with persistant football training. Although the people have hearing problems they do not differ from the others and it is recommendable to assist sports activities for all the organizations that comprise this community.
Keywords: physical qualities, problem hearing, football, speed, velocity endurance, exploding strength.

Football as a basic sports discipline at the University solves the problems and achieves the aims of the profiled education and sports improvement in physical education and sports. Football is popular, easy to practice at relatively low costs of the needed equipment within the facilities which the UCTM offers. That is why football is amongst the disciplines which students practice most. It solves educational (theoretical knowledge, learning technical elements of football, developing physical properties), salubrious /physical development, strengthening body and health, personal hygiene (and personal) moral and will, human virtues, collectivism/ tasks.
The aim of football training is achieving good physical form and health and at the same time increasing workability and helping intellectuality. The main purpose of sports classes is increasing physical abilities and control over movement when solving particular tasks which accompany students' daily life. During these classes students are supposed to acquire certain sports abilities. They study the basic technical elements and theoretical knowledge and improve their physical abilities.
In conclusion we can say that the criterion for effectiveness of sports education is the established ability of doing motive activity in some particular situations. As a result of this particular methodology students acquire theoretical and practical skills for playing and watching football. The general endurance is increased which helps their educational work. The representative team performed good playing at the city tournaments and qualified for the republican tournaments.
