The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of plyometric training on performance-related fitness variables among basketball players. For this purpose, thirty college-level men’s basketball players from DYES, Bangalore, Karnataka, India, aged between 18 and 23 years, were randomly selected as subjects. The participants were divided into two groups: a plyometric training group and a control group. The plyometric group underwent plyometric training three days per week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) during evening sessions for a period of six weeks. Speed, agility, and leg explosive power were chosen as the dependent variables. After collecting the required data, statistical analysis was performed using the paired t-test, with the level of significance set at 0.05. The results of the study indicated that plyometric training significantly improved the speed, agility, and leg explosive power of the basketball players.
