The intention of the present study was to find out the upshot of six weeks ballistic power training on shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power among soccer players. Twenty (20) male soccer players were randomly selected from affiliated colleges of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Tirunelveli, Tamilnadu, India and their age was ranged between 21 to 24 years only. The selected subjects have been randomly divided into two equal groups namely Ballistic Power Training Group (BPTG) (N=10) and Control Group (CG) (N=10). Six weeks ballistic power training programme has been formulated to see the effectiveness of given training programme on shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power among soccer players. The shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power has been tested by ‘Overhead medicine ball throw test and Sargent vertical jump test’ on before the training starts and after completion of six weeks ballistic power training programme. Significant improvement occur in shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power has been found by analysing and comparing the pre-test and post-test score through paired sample ‘t’ test and ANCOVA among the soccer players of BPTG and CG. So this study was concluded that six weeks of ballistic power training programme was shown effective in the improvement of shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power among soccer players. However, the control group had not shown any significant improvement on shoulder explosive power and leg explosive power while because they were not engaged to participated in to any specific training programme apart from their routine works.
