The study was conducted on sixty men soccer players who were participated Alagappa University Inter collegiate Soccer tournament during the year 2016–2017 were randomly selected as subjects. They were randomly assigned equally into three groups, Group –I underwent Continuous Running (n = 20), Group II underwent Intermittent Training (n=20) and Group–III acted as control Group (n=20). Among the Bio–motor Components speed was selected as creation variables and it was assessed through 50 meters run test. The pre and post test data was collected from the experimental and control groups and it were statically examined with Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). To determine the paired means difference the Scheffe’s test post hoc test was applied. Speed showed significant difference among the groups
