Squat jump and split jump are the types of plyometric exercises which are often used by athletes. Aim: The aim of the study is toevaluate the effect of squat jump and split jump training on dynamic balance among male Kabaddi players. Method: 44 male Kabaddi players were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria from 3 Kabaddi clubs from Jalgaon city. Their age ranged between 18-25 years. All the players were assessed prior to the intervention for dynamic balance using SEBT. 22 players were recruited in group with Squat jump (Group A) and 22 players were recruited in group with Split jump (Group B). Both the squat jump and split jump were included in their daily practise for 6 weeks for 5 days/week with 3 sets of 10 reps. After 6 weeks all the 44 players were reassessed for dynamic balance by using SEBT. Result: The result of our study showed that both the squat jump and split jump are equally effective in improving balance among the male Kabaddi players.
