Squash match play is characterized by fast and frenetic movements, making the development of agility and speed crucial for players. The majority of movements in squash involve only 2 or 3 steps, emphasizing the need for quick and explosive movement execution. It is a randomized clinical trial with non-probability convenience sampling technique. The sample size of the study is 28. It will be conducted in Punjab Squash Association in Lahore within 6 months after approval of synopsis. Group A will receive acceleration drills in 15-minute sessions for 6 weeks. 3-5 days per week with moderate to high intensity. Group B will receive change in direction drills (15-minute sessions) for 6 weeks, 3-5 times a week, with moderate to high intensity. The collected data will be analyzed in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 25.0. If data will be normally distributed, then parametric; if not normally distributed, then non-parametric.
