Abstract

The study was conducted to compare the physical fitness of Volleyball and Football players of Khalsa Public School, Amritsar, Punjab, INDIA. For this study 15 football (Age 17±0.845) and 15 volleyball players (age 16.866 ± 0.833) were selected. Physical fitness variables were strength, endurance, agility, speed, flexibility. The tests taken to measure these were pull ups, sit ups, shuttle run, 50 m dash and 600 m run. Data was analyzed by using t-test at 0.05 significance. Analyzed data showed that there was no significant difference in pull ups, sit ups, 50 m dash, and 600 m run, but there was a significant difference between the two groups on the basis of shuttle run performed by them.
