Abstract:
Sports are an important part of the society and an integral feature of everyday life. Sports and Physical Education play an important role in human development. Games and other outdoor activities, properly planned and executed, promote social harmony, discipline and increased productivity (Coakley and White 1992) support this notion as they suggest that, â€œIndividual decisions to participate in physical activity are shaped by a complex dynamic, in which economic factors, class and gender, parental and peer influences, leadership, and location intersectâ€. The purpose of the study was to analyze the socio-economic status of Kuvempu University intercollegiate Volleyball and Kabaddi players.

Methodology: The Reponses were collected by the research scholar personally during the men inter collegiate competitions for the year 2016-17. Players were asked to sit in a class room and the scholar explained the purpose of research work and also assured of the confidentiality of responses to the subjects. Then the questionnaire was given to the players. Where ever the doubts raised by the subjects was clarified by the researcher and finally all the players responses from two sports disciplines namely volleyball and Kabaddi. The response rate was hundred percent because the investigator visited competition place personally to collect the information.

Hypothesis: There will be a significant difference in socio-economic status between Volleyball and Kabaddi inter collegiate players of Kuvempu University.
