Investigation of Selected Physical Variables to Overhead Clearance in Badminton | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

The purpose of the study was to investigation of selected physical variables to overhead clearance in badminton. Twenty (20) male badminton players who took part in state level badminton tournaments. The selected physical variables were shoulder strength, leg strength and grip strength. The scores for selected physical variables were obtained by using the standard tests namely, medicine ball put for shoulder strength, leg strength for leg dynamometer and grip strength measured by grip dynamometer. Miller Wall-Volley test was used to measured overhead clearance in badminton. To investigation of selected physical variables to overhead clearance in badminton, Karl Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation was employed. It is concluded that the following physical variable were found not significantly related to overhead clearance in badminton.
