This study was designed to investigate the impact of plyometric training after regular physical exercise on selected power parameters and kicking ability of inter-collegiate male football players. To achieve the purpose of the study 30 Inter-Collegiate male football players were selected from affiliated colleges of Bharathiar University, Coimbatore. The subjects was randomly assigned to two equal groups (n=15). Group- I underwent plyometric training after regular physical exercise (PRPEG) and Group - II was acted as control group (CG). The respective training was given to the experimental group for 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) for the period of twelve weeks. The control group was not be given any sort of training except their routine work. The power parameters were vertical jump height (Sargent jump), leg explosive power (standing broad jump).
