Abstract :
The purpose of the study was to find out the relationship between Kabaddi playing ability with selected physiological variables among College level Players. One hundred and twenty six male inter collegiate Kabaddi players were randomly selected from various colleges in Tamilnadu state, India and their age ranged between 18 and 28 years. The subjects had past playing experience of at least three years in Kabaddi and only those who represented their respective college teams were taken as subjects. The Physiological parameters namely Resting heart rate by Digitalized heart rate monitor, Peak expiratory flow rate was assessed by Peak flow meter and Breath holding time was assessed by Manual nose clip method. The playing ability which was taken as the performance factor was subjectively assessed by three qualified Kabaddi coaches. All testing was done two day before inter – collegiate competition by using scientifically approved equipments. Mean and Standard deviations were calculated for each of the selected variables. The inter-relationship among the selected physiological variables and Kabaddi playing ability, were computed by using Pearson’ product-moment correlation coefficients. The results revealed that an Inter–relationship exists significantly between the physiological variables with playing ability among male inter-collegiate Kabaddi players.
