The aim of the study is to examine the effect of plyometric training on athletic performance and oxygen saturation in young male basketball players. 22 male basketball players who regularly practice basketball participated in the study. Participants were divided into two different groups as the experimental group (n:11 age: 20.41±3.27) and the control group (n:11 age: 21.78±2.32). A plyometric training program was applied to the experimental group 3 days a week for 6 weeks. Both groups continued their normal basketball training. Exercises known as drop jump, box jump, squat jump, split squat jump and overhead slam were applied to the plyometric training group. Anaerobic power, speed (20 m), flexibility (sit and reach) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) values were measured before and after the plyometric training. SPSS 22.0 package program was used for statistical evaluation. Shapiro-Wilk test was used for the normality of the data. Paired Sample t-test was used for within-group comparisons for statistical analysis of the data. The significance level was applied as p<0.05. Anaerobic power, speed, flexibility, and SpO2 values of the experimental group were found to be significant at the p<0.05 level. The values of the control group were not significant (p>0.05). As a result, it can be said that the 6-week plyometric training program applied to young male basketball players has a positive effect on athletic performance and SpO2 values.
