Abstract :

The present study was conducted on volleyball players to explore the possible ingredients of anthropometric variables and strength measures which are essential for execution of wall spike skill in volleyball game. To achieve the desired objective of this study, two hundred ten (North– East Zone) Inter– university (men) volleyball players were selected with age range from 18 to 27 years as subjects. Twenty anthropometric measurements, two strength measures were taken as independent variables and one Helman volleyball test bettery i.e., wall spike skill was taken as dependent variable of each subject. SPSS (11.5) computer software was used to analyze the data. Body weight and linear measurements, i.e., height, trunk length, upper arm length, lower leg length; body girth measurements i.e., shoulder and chest; body diameter measurements i.e., wrist, shoulder and knee; body composition variables. i.e., body density and lean body mass and arm and leg strength measure have positive and highly significant correlation with wall spike skill efficiency. The size of the multiple correlation is sufficiently large and hence regression equation developed is useful for the prediction of the wall spike skill efficiency
