Abstract:
The study was conducted by taking three objectives. First was to compare Agility among Different Playing Positions i. e. Goal Shooter (G. S.), Goal Attack (G. A.), Wing Attack (W. A.), Centre (C.), Wing Defence (W. D.), Goal Defence (G. D.) and Goal Keeper (G. K.) in Netball. Second was to compare Agility among three Different Levels (District, State and National) of Netball Players. Third was to find out the interactions of Different Playing Positions and Different Levels in relation to Agility of Netball Players. The study was conducted by taking Agility as a variable. Seven Playing Positions of Netball Players were selected i. e. Goal Shooter (G. S.), Goal Attack (G. A.), Wing Attack (W. A.), Centre (C.), Wing Defence (W. D.), Goal Defence (G. D.) and Goal Keeper (G. K.). The subjects for this study were selected from Different Levels i.e. District, State and National. A total of 210 Netball Players were selected from Different Levels and Different Playing Position i. e., 30 Players from each Playing Position and 70 Players from each Level. The age of the subjects was ranging from 17 to 28 years. To compare Agility among different Playing positions i. e. Goal Shooter (G. S.), Goal Attack (G. A.), Wing Attack (W. A.), Centre (C.), Wing Defence (W. D.), Goal Defence (G. D.) and Goal Keeper (G. K.) in Netball, to compare Agility among three different levels (District, State and National) of Netball players, to find out the interactions of different playing positions and different levels in relation to Agility of Netball Players, two way Analysis of variance (Two way ANOVA) was used. The level of significance was set at .05. In case of seven playing positions significant difference was found between two playing positions [Center (C.) and Goal Defence (G. D.)]. In case of Levels 07% variance in agility was explained by playing positions. In case of levels, significant difference was found among different levels (District & State; State & National). In case of Levels 12% variance in agility was explained by levels. Interactional effect was found between Playing positions and Levels. In case of interaction effect, 10% variance of interaction was found due to playing positions and levels.
