Comparative study of linear kinematical variables during running hand touch skill among different level kabaddi players

Abstract

The objective of the study was to compare linear kinematical variables during running hand touch skill execution between Inter-University and Inter-College level Kabaddi players of LPU. The total sample were comprised of six (three Inter-University + three Inter-College level) subjects. Six male Kabaddi players were selected from Lovely Professional University, Phagwara (Punjab). The age of the subjects ranged between 18 to 25 years. With regard to purpose of the study, Independent t-test statistical technique was applied for selected kinematic variables between Inter-University and Inter-College level Kabaddi players. The level of significance was set at 0.05 level. The results showed that there was no significant difference of center of gravity and distance between both feet during running hand touch skill execution between Inter-University and Inter-College level Kabaddi players. The study concludes that- Linear Kinematic variable: Center of Gravity did not significantly vary during running hand touch skill execution between Inter-University and Inter-College level LPU Kabaddi players. Linear Kinematic variable: Distance between both feet did not significantly vary during running hand touch skill execution between Inter-University and Inter-College level LPU Kabaddi players.
