<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of box jump and lateral jump training on shooting ability in soccer games. The method used is an experiment with a pretest-posttest control group design. The study sample consisted of 30 soccer players aged 17–20 years who were divided into two groups, namely the box jump training group and the lateral jump training group. The instrument used was a test of shooting ability towards the goal by measuring accuracy and speed of the shot. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test and ANOVA test with a significance level of ? = 0.05. The results showed that both training methods had a significant effect on improving shooting ability (p < 0.05). Box jump training showed an average increase of 18.7%, while lateral jump training showed an increase of 14.3%. There was a significant difference between the two groups, where the box jump group was more effective in improving shooting ability than the lateral jump group. It was concluded that box jump training was more dominant in improving shooting ability because it involved more vertical explosive movements that supported kick power.]]>
