The experimental group was engaged in a supenised plyometric training program 2 days/week for /2 H'eeks. The control group did nol practice any plyometric Iraining. The physical fitness and soccer skill variables selecled.f(Jr the study were: Speed. Explosive power. Agility. Dribbling. Kicking Right and Lefi Feet. Tests were taken two times at pre training. and post training. Data were anulyzed by using SPSS. Comparison o{mean was done hy paired T-test.

Afier /2 weeks of plyometric training (experimental group) participanl's speed (MD= 0.58), agility (MD= /.55). and explosive power (MD= -/.7) were changed significantly (p < (05). Participant's dribbling soccer skill (MD= 0.6-/). kickh1g right fhot .Ii)/' dista.nce (MD= 3.0-/) and kicking lefi loot for distance (MD= 1. 2) were significantly improved through plyometric training. This study proved thaI plyofl1etric training was sign(ficantly beller in improving the physical fitness variables and soccer skills (p < 0.05) of u- J7Gondar city administration soccer players.	en_US
