Brief Summary

To determine the effects of ladder training versus plyometric training program on agility, speed and power in domestic female cricket players. Plyometric training program and ladder training program consider effective training methods for players for development of speed, agility and power.

Detailed Description

Cricket is a well-known, particularly created team sport that is played on an international scale and involves a group of eleven players. Because both baseball and cricket are played on open fields, they are comparable sports. Cricket was first thought to be a game played only by men.1, 2 However, a few years ago, the globe became aware of the female cricket game because it was becoming more and more popular worldwide. It's a game that requires both physical components and a substantial level of technical understanding. Plyometric and ladder training programmes are thought to be efficient ways to help athletes gain strength, speed, and agility. Players will be selected for this randomised clinical study by use of successive sampling. The players will be split into two groups, 1 and 2, with Group 1 receiving ladder training and Group 2 receiving plyometric training. Each group will receive three 60-minute sessions per week for eight weeks. The vertical leap test, the agility t test, and the 30-dash test will be used to examine patients before and after the trial. Software from SPSS 25 version will be used to analyse the data.

ladder training

ladder training will be given to group 1

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

ladder training

Intervention Type: OTHER

Players practiced Ladder training for 60 minutes thrice a week for 8 weeks. There are 3 different types of drills. The first types of drills are steady state drills. These drills focus on quickness Endurance and utilize a constant rhythm throughout the ladder. The second types of drills are burst drills. These drills focus on the ability to turn on rapid burst of foot movement.

The third types of drills are elastic response drills. These drills focus on improving the reactive speed components of the lower leg. A standard agility ladder is 15 feet long and 20 inches wide Step.
