THE EFFECT OF PLYOMETRIC TRAINING ON JUMP SHOT ABILITY OF BASKETBALL PLAYERS AT VARIETY OF DISTANCE
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of this research were to 1) study the effect of plyometric training on the ability to jump and shoot a basketball at different distances, 2) compare the effect of plyometric training on the ability to shoot the basketball at different distances between 4 and 8 weeks before and after training, 3) compare plyometric training on the ability to shoot the basketball at different distances between the experimental and control groups. Sixty basketball players aged between 15 and 18 from Youth men's Yala basketball club. Samples from the inclusion criteria were Purposive Sampling with the matching method (Matching group) and divided into two groups. The experimental group was assigned to perform a specific plyometric training combined with a regular training program (n = 15); the control group was trained with a regular training program (n = 15). The two groups were trained for 8 weeks, 2 days a week, 30 minutes per day. Accuracy of shooting basketball at different distances was measured pre-test and 2 post-tests (4th and 8th week) The data were statistically analyzed as mean and standard deviation by using t - test, and repeated measure of variance with pairwise a comparison by LSD’s Method.
The research findings are as follows.
The experimental group had the basketball jump shot accuracy before and after the 4th and 8th weeks of training, it was statistically significant at the .05 level. the control group did not differ. After 8 weeks of training, the experimental group was able to accurately jump shots at close range basketball goals. the medium and long distances difference from the control group statistically significant at the .05 level
