In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of vertical jump performance on acceleration, maximal speed and change of direction speed in professional soccer players. A total of 18 football players, mean age: 24.6?2.7 years, mean height: 1.80?0.06 cm, mean weight: 75.4?5.75 kg and mean body fat percentage 11.8?1.38 %, in a 3rd Division Professional Soccer Team were voluntarily participated in this study. At the completion of the warm-up protocol, players completed assessments of countermovement jump (CMJ), speed (10-, and 30-m sprints) and change of direction speed (Pro Agility and T-test) tests. Spearman correlation analysis was used to identify the relationships between the CMJ and speed tests. Players displayed a significant negative moderate correlations between CMJ and 10-m (r= -0.59; p= 0.01), and CMJ and 30-m (r= -0.63; p= 0.00). Also it was found significant negative strong correlation between CMJ and T-test (r= -0.81; p= 0.00). However, no significant correlation was found between CMJ and Pro Agility Test (r= -0.22; p= 0.19). The results of this study show that there is a moderate-strong relationship between power and speed ability in soccer players.
