Abstract: Purpose of the study: The purpose of this study was to determine the Effect of four weeks plyometric training program on vertical jump and speed on male university players of Chhatrapati Sahu Ji Maharaj University, Kanpur (U.P.) Selection of subjects: Fifty (50) male university players were randomly selected as subjects. The age range between 19-26 years who were students of Chhatrapati Sahu Ji Maharaj University, Kanpur.Selection of variables: The variables selected for the study were plyometric training exercises as independent variables, vertical jump and speed as dependent variables.Methodology: For the present study pre-test, post-test randomized group design, which consists 2 groups of 50 students, 25 students in each group experimental and control group. Data were collected through the pre-test before the training and four weeks of plyometric training.Statistical technique: To find out the comparative effect of plyometric exercise training on vertical jump and speed of the subjects the pre-test and post-test scores were analyzed by using paired t-test was used, the data analyzed with the help of SPSS (16.0 version) software and the level of significance was set at 0.05 level of confidence.Result: The result of the study showed that there was significant difference found between pre-test and post-test in experimental group of vertical jump and speed and no significance difference was found between the control group vertical jump and speed.Conclusion: It can be concluded that plyometric training were useful to develop vertical jump and speed.
