The main objective of the current study was to evaluate the changes in performance (speed) through SAQ training and carbohydrate supplementation of 08 weeks intervention. The study was conducted in the vicinity of Punjab University, Lahore. Participants (n=16) were selected through the inclusion criteria which included elite footballers and the participants were divided into two groups which were groups (A) and (B). Hypotheses of this study were: H0 1 There is no significant difference between the pre-test of group A (speed) and the pre-test of group B (speed). Ha 2 There is a significant difference between the pre-test of group A (speed) and the post-test of group A (speed). Ha 3 There is a significant difference between the pre-test of group B (speed) and the post-test of group B (speed). Ha 4 It is hypothesized that there is a significant difference between training with the Supplementation group (A) and Training without the Supplementation group (B). Group (A) was allowed to follow the 08-week exercise plan (intervention) and carbohydrate supplementation. Only group (B) was allowed to follow the 08-week exercise plan (intervention). Descriptive statistics, means and standard deviations were calculated. The inferential statistics and different tests including paired sample t-test and independent samples t-test were applied to calculate the differences in performance of all studied groups. The data was analyzed and evaluated statistically using Version 22 of IBM SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) software. The means (with standard deviation) of the speed tests of training with carbohydrate supplementation group (A) and the means (with standard deviation) of the speed tests of training without carbohydrate supplementation group (B) were compared. This study confirms that there was not a significant difference between groups (A) and (B) before training and carbohydrate supplementation. There was a significant difference in speed in, the pre-test of the group (A) compared with the post-test, followed by SAQ Training with carbohydrate supplementation. On the other hand, there was also a significant difference in speed, in the pre-test of group B compared with the post-test, followed by SAQ Training only. The study confirmed that there was a significant change in the speed of footballers' training with carbohydrate supplementation group (A) compared to training without carbohydrate supplementation group (B), after 08 weeks of intervention.
