Being able to jump high is an asset in many sports. Most people think of the obvious ones - basketball (going in for a rim-jarring dunk), football (a receiver outjumping an opponent for the football), and volleyball (a player's head above the net while he spikes the ball). But having a good vertical jump is an asset in other sports as well - soccer, baseball, several track events, and others. The same explosive physical abilities that enable an athlete to jump high enable him to excel in other areas as well. This explosiveness also improves quickness and overall speed, which every athlete wants and needs.
