Among them sixty men players (thirty men kabaddi and thirty men kho-kho players) and sixty women players (thirty women kabaddi and thirty women kho-kho players) with an age of the subjects were ranged between 18 to 24 years were selected as subjects. Vital capacity was assessed by using standardized test item Spirometry and it was statistically analysed by using 2 x 2 factorial ANOVA. Whenever, the obtained ‘F’ ratio value for interaction effect was found to be significant, the simple effect test was applied as follow up test. In all cases, the.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the level of significance which was considered as an appropriate.
