The effect of using plyometric training methods on developing muscular strength and improving the performance of male basketball players (13-15 years old).

Abstract

Considering training as a purposeful educational process with scientific planning to prepare players of varying physical, technical, and psychological levels to reach the highest possible level, it has acquired a special character and gained attention in various important fields to achieve sporting goals at different levels and develop motor performance. Many of the methods used are the same for most coaches, which led us, the researchers, to propose a training program that aims to use plyometric exercises as suggested training units. The research aims to employ the plyometric training method to develop muscular strength and improve the performance of junior basketball players. The researchers used the experimental method with two groups: a control group represented by the Mouloudia Oran team and an experimental group represented by the Raed Mostaganem youth team. The study was applied to a sample of 13 players, divided into two groups of ten players each. Finally, through this group.
