dc.description.abstract	The purpose of this study was to investigate the comparative effects of callisthenic and plyometric training on speed, agility, explosive power and passing accuracy. To achieve the objective of the present study, quantitative research approach and true experimental research design were employed. In this study, The study population were little; all the 36 Muja Mariam general secondary school male student volleyball players were selected using comprehensive sampling technique with the age of (CG=17.92±1.240, PG=17.42±.900 and CoG=17.7500±1.28806) were assigned into three groups using simple random sampling technique. Out of the three groups, two of them were assigned as experimental groups (callisthenic and plyometric group) and the rest as control group. Both experimental groups (CG, N=12 and PG, N=12) participated in 12 weeks of callisthenic and plyometric training, 3 days per week, each session lasting 50-60 minutes respectively. But the control group (N=12) did not participate in any of training except the regular volleyball training. Data were collected through pre and posttest measurements of each fitness test like 35 m sprint test, agility zig zag test, vertical jump test and overhead pass to target test. Collected data from the study was analyzed through the use of SPSS version 20 software program. Paired sample t-test and independent sample test with level of significant p<0.05 were used for analysis. The result in the study shown that the interventions of 12 weeks callisthenic and plyometric training significantly improved the speed, agility, explosive power and passing accuracy of the students at p<.05 level of significance but no result change in control group. The plyometric training group significantly improves the speed, agility and explosive power of students than callisthenic training at p<.05 and the 12 weeks callisthenic training significantly improves the passing accuracy of students than plyometric group. Among plyometric and callisthenic training, plyometric training has been found better to improve the above mentioned fitness variables. So, the researcher recommended that, it is better to use plyometric training rather than callisthenic training to gain better improvement of speed, agility and explosive power and for better passing accuracy callisthenic training is better	en_US
