Plyometrics is treated as a method of power development and a suitable form of
training for many team and individual sports. In order to implement this type of
training among young athletes several factors must be considered. Firstly, we have to
examine what controlled research studies have to tell us about this form of training
and its effect on young children. Secondly, is it safe to use plyometric exercise with
young children. Currently, there are few peer- reviewed researches in the available
literature that can explain the effects of this form of training. This article is going to
deal with the use of plyometric training and its safety among both pre- and postpubescent
athletes. The conclusion that has been drawn from this study and in
comparison with the examined studies is that plyometrics could be not only effective
but also a safe method. This paper together with the stated recommendations could be
of practical relevance not only for trainers but also for teachers as well as for those
who has intention to participate in training process power, children, effects, safenessAbstract
