ABSTRACT
Handball is a very versatile game which is played very rarely and recently in India. The study was carried out in 30 male handball players aged between 15 to 25 yrs and 30 age matched controls. Flexibility was assessed using Sit and Reach test and Goniometry; Agility using Burpee’s squat test, Side Step test, Quadrant Jump test and Reaction time using electronic instruments. Data was analyzed using Unpaired T Test. It was observed that flexibility, agility was significantly more and reaction time was significantly less in handball players as compared to their age matched controls. However, these handball players lag far behind when compared with international handball players. So it was concluded that players with more flexibility, agility and less reaction time are at advantage for handball.
