Abstract EN

This experimental study aimed at investigating the effect of using plyometric training on improving some of the skills learned in mat gymnastics in the gymnastics course at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Sciences at the Hashemite University.

The sample of the study consisted of (14) female gymnastics students at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Sciences at the Hashemite University during the year 2011/2012.

The sample of the study was chosen by using the purposive technique.

The sample was divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group.

The researchers used pre-test and post-test for skills, to measure the level of students' performance.

The researchers used the Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) for the statistical treatment, and extracted means, standard deviations and test variance.

The results of the study showed that there are significant differences which resulted from using plyometric training in mat gymnastics.

The researchers recommended further usage of plyometric training in mat gymnastics, in addition to widely conducting similar studies which include other different variables.
