The study included 30 volunteer athletes who had no known health problems and had been regularly participating in competitions for the past four years as licensed players at the club level and within school sports programs. These athletes were selected from Iğdır 125th Year Anatolian High School and Mehmet Murat İşler Social Sciences High School, both of which reached the finals in the futsal branch during the 2021-2022 season. The participants were divided into two groups: an experimental group of 15 and a control group of 15. While both groups continued their regular futsal training routines, the experimental group additionally performed plyometric exercises three times a week for six weeks. Pre-test and post-test measurements were taken for both groups, including height, weight, body mass index, 30-meter sprint, vertical jump, flexibility, and agility tests. The means and standard deviations for all variables were calculated. To assess the normality of the data, the Shapiro-Wilk test was used. Since the data were normally distributed, paired sample t-tests were used for within-group comparisons and independent sample t-tests for between-group comparisons. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 25, with the significance level set at p <0.05. In the experimental group, a statistically significant difference was found between pre-test and post-test results (p <0.05). As a result, it was concluded that the six-week plyometric training program had a positive effect on performance parameters. Based on these results, it is recommended that futsal coaches incorporate plyometric training, particularly during pre-season or in-season conditioning, to enhance players’ speed, vertical jump, flexibility, and agility performance.}, number={2}, publisher={Niğde Ömer Halisdemir Üniversitesi}
