The purpose of the present study was to get the reference value of agility of visually impaired soccer players in accordance with the blind class. Twenty one male visually impaired soccer players (B1: n=12, B2: n=4, B3: n=5) and twelve male university soccer players participated in this study voluntarily. Subjects’ height, body weight, body mass index, body fat percentage. The agility performance at side step test was evaluated by using two support rope. The kind of the support rope was 3 fulcrums support rope (the weight mobility type=WMT) and 1 fulcrum support rope in (the pendulum mobility type=PMT). The results of there were no difference on the blind class by used WMT method in the side-step test. But there was a difference on the blind class by used PMT method in the side-step test (p>0.05). Sighted subjects were higher recorded by used PMT method in blindfold (p>0.05). In conclusion, the findings of the present study indicated the reference value of agility ability of each of the blind class. Suggested that they had been relationship in ability to recognize the space involved with pendulum mobility operation. Low vision was suggested that the superior agility performance with spatial perception than blind.
