These exercises were used for both the control and experimental groups. The control group consisted of six players, and the experimental group also consisted of six players. The research sample included walking sport practitioners in Al-Kut Governorate, aged 14-15 years.The research imposed the existence of statistically significant differences between the pre-test and post-test, as well as between the post-tests for the research groups of the experimental group in improving the technical performance of the sample individuals. The research concluded that educational exercises using auxiliary means effectively influenced the improvement of performance and achievement of the sample individuals.
