The experimental group studied according to the steps of the SUM strategy, while the control group studied according to the adopted method. The researcher used the SPSS statistical program to process the data, and the researcher concluded the following: (Proved the effectiveness of using the SUM strategy for the experimental group and the method followed for the control group in learning the skills of suppression in the game of football, it proved the effectiveness of using the SUM strategy for the experimental group and the method followed for the control group in creative thinking.
