ABSTRACT

The main purpose of this study was to find out the Physical Fitness Variables of School Level Rural and Urban Football Players for Kashmir Division. For the present study the source of subjects were selected from Physical Fitness Variables (Shoulder strength, Abdominal Strength, Leg Strength, Agility, Speed, and Cardio-vascular Endurance, of School Level Rural and Urban Football Players of Kashmir City. The study was delimited to school level male football players of Kashmir city only and 100 players were selected from rural and 100 players from urban football players. The age of the subjects ranging from 12 to 18 years of School level players.The data pertaining to each of the Physical Fitness Variables (Shoulder strength, Abdominal Strength, Leg Strength, Agility, Speed, and Cardio-vascular Endurance) were examined by the special statistical techniques. To test the hypothesis, t- test was employed which was given by the researcher previously. The level of significance for the present study is kept at 0.05 level. Researcher stated earlier hypothesis that, there would be a significant difference in the physical fitness of rural and urban football players. From the finding of the study it was reveal that significant difference found in between Rural and Urban Football players Hence the researcher stated hypothesis is accepted. Further it is hypothesized that the rural football players would be better than and urban football players in physical fitness. From the finding of the study it was observed that Rural Football players are better than the and Urban Football players in physical fitness variables, Hence the researcher stated hypothesis is accepted
