Abstract

In this study totally 30 athletes were selected randomly from Pondicherry University who are all participated intercollegiate athletic tournament in short and long distance events, in this 15 athletes from short distance and 15 from long distance runners. Their age ranged from 17 to 28 years as per their university records, variables were restricted for this study anthropometric parameters such as Mid -thigh girth, calf mid girth, leg length, BMI as well straid length performance. Collection of data: (Straid length) before starting data collection 400 mts track were divided in to 5 half, then selected subjects were taken sufficient time before starting data collection for getting warming up them self-its for avoiding injuries as well minimize data error, after that they were commended to run 400mts running then researcher has taken random data from each half and converted mean value for analyse data. Statistics: collected data were used for analyse relationship between anthropometric parameters and straid length Pearson product moment co-relation were used with 0.05 significance level. Results: Long distance runners in this there is positive Relationship between Mid- Thigh Girth and Straid Length Performances as well Calf Girth and Straid Length Performances. But there is no relationship between Leg Length and Straid Length Performance as well Body Mass Index and Straid Length Performance. Short distance runners in this there is positive Relationship between Mid- Thigh Girth and Straid Length Performances, Calf Girth and Straid Length Performances as well BMI and Straid Length Performances. But there is no relationship between Leg Length and Straid Length Performance.

Highlights

Summary

Introduction

A days every sports and games achievement as well application of skills based on concern sports as well techniques likewise number of things we require to achieve world level sports and games competitions. Recent days peoples were suffering from variety of diseases because lack of physical activity, over eating, using hybrid agriculture and eating that, eating fast food items, obesity, diabetes and so on., this may be a reason physical education and sports playing vital role in each and every human’s life[3] For this anthropometric measurement will help who are all wish to engage physical activity through sports and games based on our natural anthropometric body alignments [4,5]. In this modern world sports and game are more challenging sports participants as well coaches, that way all the sports coaches engaging to implement new kind of techniques, skill trainings and selection process of an athlete’s[6,7]. This kind of scientific approach outcome is generating more expectation and aspiration among this society from selected athletes for full filling this expectation from the beginning itself we have to use scientific methods of selection procedure for identifying talented athletes, adopting training methods and skill training and so on. 1.1 Objective: In this study conducted to examine the relationship of selected anthropometric parameters
