Basketball is a sport that requires a combination of technical skills and physical abilities to achieve optimal performance. One of the most important offensive techniques is the jump shot, which is strongly influenced by lower-limb explosive power. However, the jump-shooting ability of students at the Faculty of Sports and Health Sciences (FIKK), Universitas Negeri Makassar (UNM), remains relatively low due to suboptimal leg muscle power. Therefore, an effective training method is needed to improve students’ jump-shoot performance. This study aimed to determine the effect of plyometric training on the jump-shooting ability of FIKK UNM students. This study employed an experimental method using a One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design. The sample consisted of 20 FIKK UNM students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a jump-shooting ability test. The treatment involved a structured plyometric training program conducted for six weeks with a frequency of three sessions per week. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired-sample t-test. The results revealed that the mean pre-test score of students’ jump-shoot ability was 7.85, which increased to 11.95 in the post-test, resulting in an average improvement of 4.10 points. Hypothesis testing showed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant effect of plyometric training on jump-shoot performance. In conclusion, plyometric training is effective in improving the jump-shooting ability of FIKK UNM students. The training program enhances lower-limb explosive power and contributes positively to basketball-specific technical performance. Therefore, plyometric exercises can be recommended as an effective training strategy for improving jump-shoot skills in basketball learning and coaching programs.
