Purpose: The study aims to scientifically substantiate a model for developing the technical readiness of 12–13-year-old football players. The model seeks to enhance players’ physical coordination, dribbling, passing accuracy, striking power, endurance, and quick decision-making, which are fundamental in modern football training.

Research methodology: A step-by-step model was designed, consisting of preparatory, basic, advanced, and special stages of technical training. An experimental study was conducted with young football players in the Bukhara region, divided into control and experimental groups. Data were collected using standardized physical and technical tests to measure dribbling speed, endurance, striking power, and other performance indicators. Statistical analysis was employed to evaluate differences and dynamics between the groups.

Results: The experimental group demonstrated significant improvements across key indicators compared to the control group. Notably, enhancements were observed in dribbling speed, striking power, and decision-making under time constraints. Statistical analysis confirmed that the staged model effectively contributed to measurable growth in technical readiness.

Conclusions: The study confirms that a structured, progressive training model fosters technical skill development in young football players. The proposed framework may serve as a guideline for sports schools and coaches in designing age-appropriate training programs.

Limitations: The study was region-limited and short-term; broader contexts and longer monitoring are required for generalization.

Contribution: The study contributes to youth sports training literature by presenting an evidence-based model that integrates physical, technical, and cognitive elements into a unified developmental framework.
