Abstract
The purpose of this research was to study and compare a plyometric training program on body composition, muscle power, agility, speed and anaerobic energy performance of female basketball players, who studying in universities before and after the experiment with the post-tests at 4th and 8th weeks. They were divided into two groups. The experimental group female basketball team players from Silpakorn University (Sanam Chandra Palace Campus) and the control group female basketball team players from Nakhon Pathom Province. 14 people per group, total 28 people. They were selected as a purposive sampling. The experimental group had been practiced with plyometric training program. Data were collected before the experiment and after the experiment at 4th and 8th weeks. The collected data were analyzed by one-way repeated-measures and compared the experimental group and the control group using an independent sample t-test. The one-way covariance analysis results of the experimental group and the control group after 8th week of the experiment were showed that average analysis results of body fat percentage, body composition, leg muscle power, agility, speed, anaerobic energy performance measurement of the experimental group were higher than the control group at the statistical significance of 0.05.
In conclusion, the plyometric training was found affected on body composition, muscle power, agility, speed and anaerobic energy performance of female basketball players.
