  4 week

• T test

  T test measured both before and after and Athletes can test their agility by running forward, sideways, and backwards in the T-Test. Arrange four cones. At the sound of the timer, the subject begins at cone A, runs to cone B, and places their right hand on the cone's base. Next, they make a left turn, move sideways to cone C, and touch its base with their left hand once more. After that, shuffle sideways to cone D and use your right hand to contact the base. Then they run backwards to cone A and shuffle back to cone B, touching with their left hand.

Interventions

ladder training OTHER

Players practiced Ladder training for 60 minutes thrice a week for 8 weeks. There are 3 different types of drills. The first types of drills are steady state drills. These drills focus on quickness Endurance and utilize a constant rhythm throughout the ladder. The second types of drills are burst drills. These drills focus on the ability to turn on rapid burst of foot movement. The third types of drills are elastic response drills. These drills focus on improving the reactive speed components of the lower leg. A standard agility ladder is 15 feet long and 20 inches wide Step.
