The current research aims at designing a ballistic training program for developing speed strength and to identify its effect on improving the shooting skill of junior handball players. The researchers used the quasi-experimental approach with one-group design and pre-/post- measurement. Sample was purposefully chosen from the National Project for Giants' Players (under 18 years) - Middle Delta Area, 2009/2010 season. Sample was chosen from 13/2/2009 to 10/4/2009. Sample included 30 players. Results indicate that the ballistic training program had a positive effect on developing physical variables of the sample. This, in turn, increased the improvement percentage between the pre- and post- tests from 1.6% to 20.31%. The program, also, improved the skills variables from 30.89% to 36.89%.
