This study aims to investigate the impact of coach encouragement feedback circuit training (CEFCT) on the level of fitness, grit, and technical performance of youth sepak takraw athletes. A randomised control trial (RCT) design during 8 weeks was adopted. There were 80 young male sepak takraw athletes allocated into two groups: the CEFCT group (n = 40, 17.4 ± 1.22 years) and the control group (CG, n = 40, 17.5 ± 1.24 years). Paired sample t-test showed significant differences in fitness, grit and technical performance in CEFCT (all, p < .05) and CG (all, p < .05) from pre-test until post-test. In the 2-way ANOVA repeated measures test, we observed a significant time effect on physical fitness (all p < .05), along with a group effect (p < .05); however, there was no effect on the CMJ parameter (p > .05). Moreover, there was an interaction time * group in some parameters (p < .05), but it was not found in 10-mST (p > .05). At the same time, we found a time effect on grit (all, p < .05), but no difference in the group effect (all, p > .05). Furthermore, there was a time * group interaction on grit-maintaining interest (MI) (p < 005), but it was not found in grit-continuing efforts (CE) (p > .05). Finally, we found that there was an effect of time (all, p < .05) simultaneously with group (all, p < .05), but there was no time * group interaction (all, p > .05). The coach must apply encouragement during the circuit to increase the level of physical fitness, grit and technical performance of youth sepak takraw athletes.
