A Pilot Study: Comparison of Explosive Leg Strength among the Player of Different Indigenous Games of North Tripura | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

The purpose of the study was to compare the explosive leg strength among the players of different indigenous games of North Tripura. It was hypothesized that on explosive leg strength there would be no significance differences among the players of different indigenous games of North Tripura namely, Kabaddi, Kho-kho and Solaimani (Wrestling). Twenty (20) players each from district level were selected as the subjects from three different indigenous games of North Tripura namely, Kabaddi, Kho-kho and Solaimani (Wrestling) for the study. The ages of the subject were ranged from 18 to30 years. After applying ANOVA it was obtained that cal F(3.78) is greater than Tab F(3.17). Hence, there were significant differences among the players of different indigenous games of North Tripura in relation to explosive leg strength. LSD test indicates that there was significant difference in explosive leg strength between Solaimani (42.45) and Kabaddi (52.65). However, there were no such significant differences between Solaimani (42.45) and Kho-Kho (48.3) and Kabaddi (52.65) and Kho-Kho (48.3) respectively.
