Six physical fitness components viz., Explosive strength, Flexibility, Agility, Balance, Muscular strength, Muscular endurance, were considered as variable for the present study. The data were collected by standard tools and techniques. Mean and standard deviation was used as descriptive t-test was used to measure the significance of different between two groups.
