Volunteer </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 17 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> footballers playing amateur league in </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> Elazığ </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> were participated to this study as subjects. Regular plyometric exercises were used in the one part of training session of this subject. Also, volunteer </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 17 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> footballers who are doing routine soccer training and </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 17 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> sedentary students were measured as other control groups. The first group put into plyometric training in </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 3 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> month periods, two days a week for </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 30 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28"> <span lang="EN-US"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> minutes. Pre and posttest were performed in 3-month periods to measure the anthropometrics characteristics of subjects. Wingate and Margaria Clamen anaerobic tests, vertical jump, 45-mt sprint and leg strength test were done. </span> <font size="1">  </font> </span> </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">To determine the differences in groups; One way Anova, Wilcoxon test and descriptive statistics were used with SPSS program.  </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;">Subjects in groups have similar ages. There were height increase in plyometric training group (PAG) </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 1.8 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> cm, in clasic Training group (KAG); </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 0.7 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> cm and in sedentary group (SG); </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 0.6 </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;"> cm. It was found significant increase in the mean body weight of PAG (62,2±5,4; </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> 63,1 ±5,4) </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:7.0pt;mso-ansi-language: EN-US;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"> but, decrease percent body fat (10,8±0,8; 10,3±0,7) (p<0.01).  </span> </span> </span> <span class="FontStyle28" style="font-size: 0.9em;"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14px;">According to the anaerobic power tests (Calamen, Wingate and vertical jump tests), there were significant positive developments in PAG compare to other groups.
