Comparative study of coordinative ability, balance and reaction time among wrestlers in different weight categories

Abstract

The main purpose of the study was to compare the coordinative ability, balance and reaction time among wrestlers in different weight categories. For the present study, the data were collected from the inter-collegiate players of various different weight category viz. wrestling players from Degree College of physical education (DCPE) Amravati. The data pertaining to coordinative ability, balance and reaction time was collected from 45 subjects and 15 subjects were selected from each weight category I.e. (15) from 51-55 weighted players, (15) from 56-60 weighted players and (15) from 61-66 weighted players, through simple random sampling for testing the hypothesis. The data was collected on the selected subjects by admitting the appropriate test before collection of data. The level of significance was kept at 0.05 to testing the hypothesis. The statistical analysis and interpretation was done on the basis of data collection. The data was analyzed and interpreted by using’ ‘f’ test. The finding of the study shows that there was found insignificant difference in the coordination, reaction time and balance among wrestlers in different weight categories.
