This study was designed to investigate the effect of speed training program on selected skill related physical fitness variables of inter-collegiate men kho-kho players. To achieve the purpose of the study thirty men kho-kho players were selected from Department of Physical Education Bharathiar University Coimbatore. Their age ranged between 18 and 25 years. The subjects were randomly assigned into two equal groups (n=15). Group- I underwent speed training (Experimental group) and Group- II was acted as a control group (N=15). The speed training was given to the experimental group for 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) for the period of eight weeks. The control group was not given any sort of training except for their routine work. The Speed (50meters dash), agility (shuttle run rest) cardiorespiratory endurance (12mins cooper’s run and walk test) were measured by standardized tests. The data collected from the subjects were statistically analyzed with’t’ ratio, to find out significant improvement if any at 0.05 level of confidence. The result of the speed, agility and cardiorespiratory endurance improved significantly due to speed training with the limitations of diet, climate, lifestyle status and previous training. The results of the present study coincide with the findings of the investigation done by different experts in the field of sports sciences.
