Correlations of Biomechanical Characteristics with Ball Speed in Penalty Corner Push-In Comparative Study of Speed Agility and Strength Endurance among Kho-Kho and Kabaddi Players

The purpose of the study was to compare the speed, agility and strength endurance between kabaddi players and kho-kho players. To achieve this purpose, thirty kabaddi players and thirty kho-kho players who were studying in the department of physical education and sport sciences, Selvam college of physical education, were selected as subjects as random. The age of the boys were ranged between 19 to 24 years were selected only as subjects. The subjects were tested on selected criterion variables such as speed, agility and endurance. The selected criterion variables such as speed was measured by 50 meters dash, agility was measured by shuttle run and strength endurance was measured by using bend knee sit-ups. The’t’ ratio was used to find our significant changes, if any, between the kabaddi players and kho-kho players on selected criterion variables separately. There was a significant difference found on speed and strength endurance between kho-kho and kabaddi players.
