Players would be taken from Prime Sports Academy and Prime Institute of Health Sciences, Islamabad and a well-designed Plyometric training plan will be implied on them for 8 weeks. After the time span, the result would be compared to check the effectiveness of the training plan.', 'detailedDescription': "Volleyball, invented by William Morgan in 1895, boasts a global participation of approximately 500 million people, making it a dynamic and fast-paced sport with diverse technical, tactical, and athletic demands. The game places high requirements on players' speed, agility, power, and strength. In the Netherlands, it is one of the most played team sports, with over 12,500 athletes participating. Volleyball is considered safer than other sports like football, handball, and basketball. Plyometric training (PT) is a key focus for coaches and professionals aiming to enhance players' conditioning capacities.\n\nPlyometric jump training (PJT) has been identified as beneficial for both amateur and professional volleyball players, emphasizing the importance of training for repeated jumping, frequent sprinting, and directional changes. A meta-analysis by Ramirez et al. (2020) found that PJT effectively improved players in various age groups and genders while being deemed safe for volleyball players. Gjinovci et al. (2017) conducted a Randomized Control Trial, revealing greater improvements in plyometric group participants compared to skill-based training, particularly for sprinting, jumping, and throwing performance in players above 18 years of age.\n\nGiven the lack of a structured training plan for volleyball players, the study proposes implementing a structured plyometric training plan. This approach aims to enhance physical fitness and technical skills, including improved landing mechanics, increased explosive power, muscle strength, and agility. The study anticipates incorporating the structured plyometric training plan into the domestic players' training protocol, with a focus on improving rate of force development (RFD) for explosive movements such as jumping and spiking, as well as enhancing speed and agility for quick and coordinated on-court actions. The ultimate goal is to evaluate whether the proposed training plan positively impacts players' technical skills and physical fitness."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'MALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '25 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'genderBased': True, 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Young male healthy volleyball players aged 18-25 years, actively engaged in games for at least 6 months will be included in the study.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Female players\n* History of trauma/injury in the last month.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06212856', 'briefTitle': 'Effects of 8 Week Plyometric Training on Physical Fitness and Technical Skills in Young Male Volleyball Players', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Riphah International University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effects of 8 Week Plyometric Training on Physical Fitness and Technical Skills in Young Male Volleyball Players', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '014245'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Group-A (Plyometric training)', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Plyometric training']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Group-B (Conventional)', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Conventional']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Plyometric training', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'The group will receive plyometric exercises in a controlled environment.
