Abstract :

Aim of the study was to find out the effect of Concurrent, Resistance and Plyometric Training on Speed Endurance among college level court game player. To attain the purpose forty five (N=40) court games players (Volleyball & Basketball) studying in Yadava College Madurai, Tamilnadu were selected as subjects during the academic year 2012–2013. They were randomly divided into four groups of 10 each, Group I underwent Concurrent Training, Group II underwent Resistance Training, Group III underwent Plyometric Training and Group–IV acted as Control. The Experimental groups underwent the respective training for eight weeks duration. Among various Speed parameters only Speed Endurance was selected as a dependent variable, and it was assessed by 150 meters run test. The data obtained from the experimental groups and control groups before and after the experimental period were statistically analyzed with Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Whenever the ‘F’ ratio for adjusted post test means was found to be significant, the Scheffe’s test was applied as post–hoc test to determine the paired mean differences. The level of confidence was fixed at 0.05 level for all the cases. Speed Endurance showed significant difference among the groups, further the results suggested that Concurrent training was showed better performance when compare to other experimental and control group
