Abstract:The correlational study aims to find the contribution of dynamic balance, grip strength, and eye-hand coordination of elite badminton players to their smash performance. The sample size comprised 30 young elite badminton players of Ahmedabad including both genders. The data were collected using the measurement test on four variables: the dynamic balance data was using the y-balance test, grip strength using a hand-held dynamometer, eye-hand coordination using the anterior wall toss test, and smash performance using the smash accuracy and speed test. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 16.0 and Microsoft Excel 10. The level of significance was kept at 5% and the confidence interval (CI) at 95%. Correlational and regression analysis was done to determine the contribution of the above-mentioned variables. The results showed that the grip strength with a p-value of 0.04 and r value of 0.38 has moderate, dynamic balance with a p-value of 0.001 and r value of 0.65 has strong and eye-hand coordination with a p-value of 0.01 and r value of 0.37 has low correlation respectively with smash performance of badminton players.
