The age range of the 40 male subjects for the current study was 18 to 25 years. 20 football and 20 handball players were chosen as subjects from the Murshidabad district in West Bengal, India. The variables chosen for this study were agility and speed. The information was gathered by administering the tests for agility (10x4 meter shuttle run) and speed (50-meter dash). Descriptive analysis and an independent t-test with a significance level of 0.05 were used to compare the means of the physical fitness components. According to the findings of this study, there were no significant differences found in speed and agility between football and handball players.
