Author(s): Dr. Gaganendu Dash, Sri Ambuj Ghosh, Susant Kumar Dash and Sakti Ranjan Mishra

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to compare different anthropometrical variables of sports persons and non-sports person. A total of 200 male youths were selected randomly (105 sport persons having represented in different team games at college level, 58 college level athletes and 37 young adults not involved in sport activities) were measured with selected anthropometrical variables in this cross-sectional study. It can well be inferred from the present study that, the leg, foot and arm length of individuals, not connected to sports and games were shorter than those of sports men. The variables, viz. thigh and calf girth, playing very important role in strength, recorded higher estimates among sports men than non-sports men.
