Background: The positive effects of using the SAQ training method in developing some elements of physical fitness and skills for professional players were determined, while the effect of this method on learners of sports skills has not been studied.
Objective: The presented study aims to identify Effects of Speed Agility Quickness Training Program on Explosive Power and Handball High Jump Shot Accuracy
Methods: 40 male Students of the Sports Sciences Faculty at Mutah University were randomly divided into two groups: experimental (EG) including 20 (mean ± SD: body mass: 70.60 ± 4.45; body height: 174.40± 3.70) and control (CG) including 20 (mean ± SD: body mass: 71.95 ± 4.45; body height: 175.65 ±3.13), The experimental group performed SAQ program(24 sessions: 8 weeks,3 sessions per week,60 mins per session, the total time would be 1440 mins) while the control group undertook the same volume of regular training) It is based on cardio and strength training exercises), after that, both groups performed a total of 12 sessions(4 weeks,3 sessions per week,60 mins per session) handball jump shot learning program, so that the total time of the handball jump shot learning program would be 720 mins, Outcome measures were assessed before and after a period of both TRAINING and handball jump shot learning program to measure Explosive Power and Handball High Jump Shot Accuracy, An Independent Samples T-Test and A Paired Samples T-Test were used to analyze data. p<0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
Results: The improvement observed in the experimental (EG) group was significantly greater compared to the control group(CG) in terms of the Explosive Power and Handball High Jump Shot (p<0.05).
Conclusions: It appears that 8 weeks of speed agility quickness program provides greater benefit for improving the Explosive Power and Handball High Jump Shot in male Students of Sports Sciences Faculty at Mutah University
