Abstract

The current research aims to identify the effect of a training program to develop some physical variables on the level of performance of the serve in squash. The researcher used the experimental method, and the research experiment was applied to the research sample on a deliberate sample of (16) players. The researcher used maximum strength tests, muscle capacity tests, strength, speed and accuracy tests for the squash player. One of the most important results he reached was that the training program using plyometric training led to the development of muscle capacity, maximum strength, accuracy and speed for all parts of the body in general and the arms in particular for the research sample. It also led to improving the level of performance of the serve for the research sample. The research results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurements and the percentages of improvement as a result of applying the proposed training program to develop muscle capacity and maximum strength for the arms in favor of the post-measurement. There are statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurements and the improvement rates resulting from the application of the proposed training program in improving the level of serve performance in favor of the post-measurement.
