The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of plyometric training on speed and power in outstanding rugby players. Twenty-four male, college rugby players (average aged 20.29±1.40yr ; average time involved in rugby 6.42±1.35 yrs; average height 176.5±6.23cm; average weight 85.79±13.54kg) were the volunteers distribution to divide into treatment and control group (treatment vs. control, 12 vs. 12 ) performed vertical jump, standing jump, repassage run and 100M sprint. The treatment group received the plyometric training for eight weeks, twice per week and one hour per time except technique training for eight weeks, twice per week and one hour per time except technique training. The training involved 10m low-hurdle jump and up-and-down wood box jump. The control group received technique training, but didn’t receive plyometric training. All data were analyzed as follows by statistics of jumping-style exercise training after 8 weeks. Results indicated that both treatment and control groups showed significant improvements on Plyometric Training. (1)Weight: the treatment group decreased 1.17kg and the control group decreased 1.25 kg between pre- and post- training periods. It has revealed that they significantly reached the level. (2)100M Sprint: the treatment group increased 0.32sec that was significantly reached the level, but the control group increased 0.03secthat was significantly not reached the level. (3)Vertical jump: the treatment group increased 3.5cm and the control group increase 0.58cm between pre- and post- training period. It has revealed that they significantly reached the level. (4)Standing jump: the treatment group increased 0.35mthat was significantly reached the level, but the control group increased 0.04mthat was significantly not reached the level. (5) Repassage run: the treatment group increased 0.37sec and the control group increased 0.09sec between pre- and post- training periods. It has revealed that they significantly reached the level. Conclusion: This study has revealed that the effectiveness of 8-weeks training of Plyometric Training. It significant improved on speed and power in college rugby player. That would strengthen rugby players’ physical ability and be references for guidelines in coaching.
