Abstract:
The present study was to determine the effect of cross training program on selected speed among footballers. Eighty male students (n = 80) were randomly selected as subjects and the age were ranged between 19 and 22 years. The selected subjects were randomly assigned into four equal groups such as training groups(TG) and the control group (CG) for the strengths of twenty (n = 20) each. Experimental training groups underwent respective cross training programme for twelve weeks for three days per week and two sessions on each day. The control group did not involve in any special training apart from their regular activities. The speed was taken as a criterion variable for the present study and it was measured by 50m dash. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to analyse the collected data. The results revealed that that the cross training was made significant improvement (p≤0.05) in speed of the selected subjects. The level of confidence was fixed at 0.05 in all cases.
