Author(s): Dr. C Guruvupandian
Abstract:Objective: The long-term objective of this study was to review how Kho-Kho players' speed and agility responded to ladder training.
Participation: Thirty male kho-kho players were randomly selected from SMS College of Arts and science, Sivakasi and their age ranged between 18 to 21 years old.
Method and Measures: The subjects were randomly assigned to two equal groups (n=15) namely experimental group and control group. Experimental group underwent ladder training for a period of eight weeks and control group did not participate in any kind of protocol-related exercises under supervision or specific training programme. The speed and agility were selected as dependent variables. Pre and post-assessment random group design was used for this study.
Statistical technique: The dependent ‘t’ test was applied to determine the difference between the means of two groups. To find out whether there was any significant difference between the experimental and control groups. To test the level of significant of difference between the means 0.05 level of confidence was fixed.
Results: The result of the study shows that, there was a significant improvement takes place on speed and agility of kho-kho players due to the effect of eight weeks ladder training and also concluded that, there was a significant difference exists between experimental and control group.
Conclusion: Ladder training can also be used to help improve sports skill performance, as it can help to develop speed and agility on male kho-kho players.
