Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of technical training on basketball speed dribbling skill and stationery two- point shot in Madda Walabu University male third-year sport science students. Twenty-eight (28) male sport science students were selected by the census sampling method. For this study, a quantitative research method was used. Because this method involves measurable quantities, this would give you a set of numerical data. A pretest-and-posttest randomized experimental design was employed. The experimental group underwent a basketball technical training program for eight weeks but the control group did not receive basketball technical training interventions. The level of significant was set at p<0.05. Statistically significant difference have been detected between the pre-test and post-test values on experimental group in speed dribbling (p=0.01) and stationary two-point shooting skills (p= .000) registered statistically significant difference. The results of the study showed that providing systematic and gradual increment of both duration and intensity of basketball technical training with in eight-weeks intervention, statistically significant improvements and changes were observed in the students speed dribbling and stationary two-point shooting skills. The researcher concluded that regular participation in basketball technical training had a significant effect on the improvement and enhancement of basketball speed dribbling and stationary two-point shooting skill performances. Further study shall be done by increasing basic basketball skills through increasing subjects and taking a maximum period of training duration (increasing subjects and adding basic basketball skills require a long period of time with a well-programmed training schedule).
