To compare the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIT) with one versus three changes of direction
(COD) on young (age, 17.2±1.1 years) female basketball players’ performance, six weeks of regular basketball
training (control period) was followed by six weeks of high-intensity training added to regular training , two
times per week, with a random allocation of athletes to either HIT with one (HIT-COD1; n=6) or three COD
(HIT-COD3; n=6). Before and after the control and HIT-COD training periods athletes performed repeated-
sprint ability test (RSA), modified agility T-test (MAT), V-cut, triple standing dominant (TS-D) and non-
dominant (TS-ND) jump, TS-D and TS-ND with COD tests, and 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test (30-15IFT ).
With the exception of a substantial improvement in V-cut in both groups, no substantial changes occurred
during the control period. Both HIT-COD training programs improved V-cut, although only HIT-COD3
substantially improved RSA mean time (RSA m), MAT and the final speed reached in 30-15IFT (V IFT ). The
between-group comparison revealed greater improvements in RSA m and V IFT in HIT-COD3 than in HIT-
COD1. In conclusion, supplementation of basketball training with HIT-COD drills adds improvements to young female basketball player’s performance, especially when 3 COD are incorporated into HIT
