The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of Effect of Circuit Training for development of Explosive Power  among Female Volley Ball, Basket Ball and Hand Ball Players of Social Welfare Degree Colleges in Telangana State.The subjects (N=120) were divided into four groups of 120 female sports persons  at random i.e. Volleyball Basketball and handball Players. The groups were designed as experimental Group I circuit training (volleyball players), GroupII circuit training group (basketball players), Group III circuit training group Handball players), and GroupIV acted as control group (CG). A pre-test was conducted for all the 120 subjects on selected physical fitness variable such as explosive power. The experimental group participated in Circuit Training for twelve weeks. The control group did not participate in any of the training programs. After twelve weeks, all four groups underwent the post-test on the dependent variables. The variations between the initial and final tests were considered as the effects of various treatments by using the Standing Broad Jump Test. To test the statistical significance of the differences, ANCOVA was employed. From the above clearly shows that standing broad jump is increased in Volleyball, Basketball, and Handball  players whereas the control did not improve from pre-test to post-test.Key Words : Explosive Power, Circuit Training
