Abstract

In the present study, an attempt has been made to compare the anthropometric variables between state level football inter-school winners and losers. The study was carried out on 50 male football players (25 winners and 25 losers) of the age group 16 to 19 years. All the participants were assessed for height, weight, chest circumference, thigh circumference and calf circumference. An independent samples t-test revealed that winners had significantly higher height (p<0.01), lesser weight (p<0.01) and significant difference existed in chest, thigh and calf circumferences. Further investigations are needed on the above studied variables along with fitness and physiological variables to assess relationships among.
