Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of game specific training programme on selected physical and physiological variables among school boys kabaddi players. To facilitate the study 30 kabaddi players from the different school, who participated various kabaddi matches in school level.  They were randomly selected as subjects and their age ranged from 14-17 years. They were divided into two equal groups’ namely experimental group and control group. Before the commencement of the training, purpose of the study and method of specific training were explained to the subjects for their cooperation and to avoid injuries. The researcher reviewed the various scientific literatures pertaining to specific training on selected physical and physiological variables from books, journals and research papers. The study was formulated as a true random group design consisting of a pre-test and post test.  The subjects (N=30) were randomly assigned to two equal groups of fifteen male students. The experimental group and control group respectively. Pre test was conducted for all the 30 subjects on selected physical fitness variables and physiological variables. The experimental groups participated in respective training for three days per week a period of six weeks programme. The control group did not participate in any of the training programme. The post test was conducted on the above said dependent variables after a period of six weeks for all the two groups. It was concluded that there was significant improvement in agility and flexibility due to game specific training on experimental group than the control group.
