ABSTRACT:
The purpose of this study was to compare the Trend of Plyometric and Circuit training on agility of Punab State Basketball Players. The study was delimited to sixty male basketball players from Punjab. The age of the players ranged from 12 to 16 years. The Agility was measured before and after a six-week training period. The players of Experimental group were trained for six days per week on alternative days (Plyometric Training on Monday, Wednesday and Friday whereas Circuit Training on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday). The Agility was measured through shuttle run 10×10 Yards. Mean and Standard Deviation of the shuttle run were calculated. However, post-test of the Experimental Group showed a sign of improvement in shuttle run that was significantly lesser than pre-test. Results of this study showed significant difference between pre-test and post-test of Experimental group on dependent measurements (p<0.05).
