The purpose of this study was to collect the review related to Time Motion Analysis of team game. The review was collected of two decade from 1984 to 2014 using internet. Researchers used Google search engine. Most of the Time Motion Analysis studies were conducted on segmental movement. As the study is delimited to Time Motion Analysis of team game, researchers found many studies on rugby game, very few on basketball and hockey, and a study related to wheelchair sports (wheelchair basketball). Most of the time motion studies of team games were conducted in Canada. Technology is enhancing day by day. In the decade of 80’s, video technology was used. In 90’s computerised video analysis was used. Now-a-days modern GPS system and tracers are being used for Time Motion Analysis

The above exercise was done 2 times in the first 4 weeks and 3 times in the last two weeks. There was 3 min rest between training cycles. Calculation of aerobic power before and after training was done by performing test RAST. T-dependent and T-independent tests with P≥0.5 significance level was used for data analysis. The results showed that there were no significant differences between the effects of 6 weeks selected circular training in the morning and evening on the anerobic power of adolescent athlete. The six-week training cycle in the morning and evening also has significant effects on the aerobic power of adolescent athlete.
