Summary/Abstract: The issue of the components of sport training has been a point of interest in the work of sport researchers since the second half of the 20th century. Studying the literature, we find that, although totally different in terms of objectives, level of physical performance, training conditions, socio-economic status, etc., the three dimensions of football (professional, semi-professional and amateur) are intertwined in the issue of training planning. In this paper we aimed to analyse the situation of a semi-professional team (from the 3rd league in Romania), the psycho-socio-economic profile of the players and where they stand in terms of physical training, and what are their perspectives on it. The aspects discussed by the authors include physical, technical, tactical, psychological and theoretical training. In recent times, the game of football has changed, and we can say that the perspective on its preparation has also evolved. Thus, the approach to training means has changed in recent years. In recent scholarly works, authors look at football training as a whole and training means are no longer seen as having a single purpose, but as exercises having characteristics from each component. This is due, on the one hand, to the increasing complexity of the game of football and, on the other hand, to the cramming of competitive periods.
