Abstract

Sport being integral part of human life is getting more competitive and knowledge driven these days. The coaches are challenged with selection of best playing team and the criterion for their selection is getting systematic. The present study intended to evaluate the anthropometric and physical ability variables that most importantly influence the University handball players’ performance. The necessary data was collected during the training sessions using panel of judges. The data was analyzed using step-wise regression. The analysis indicated the anthropometric variables viz., height, hand span and leg length and the physical ability variables, arm power, leg power and hand grip strength could be crucial factors.
