The study was formulated as pre and post test random group design, in which thirty inter collegiate players were divided into two equal groups. The experimental group-1(n=15) underwent pressure training. In this study, only one training program were adopted as independent variables and ability of accuracy throw, obstacle dribble and jump shoot was selected as dependent variable and it was tested by accuracy throw zinn handball battery test, performance was recorded in points and obstacle dribble was tested by zinn handball test was recorded in seconds and jump shoot was tested by zinn handball test was recorded in points. The training period of this intervention 3 days in a week for twelve weeks. The collected pre and post data was critically analyzed with dependent ‘t’ test.
