Abstract :

The present study efforts were made to analyse the physical fitness variables of senior secondary girls students between Kerala and Tamil Nadu. To achieve this purpose, hundred (n = 100) senior secondary girls students were selected fifty (n = 50) from Kerala and fifty (n = 50) from Tamil Nadu as subjects at random and their age ranged between 15 and 18 years. Explosive power and speed were selected as criterion variables of this study and they were assessed by using standing oad jump and 50 meter run. The significance level was set to priority at 0.05. The collected data were analysed by independent t ratio to find out the significant difference if any between the groups .The results of the study showed that there was an insignificant (p ≥ 0.05) difference in explosive power (1.73 ± 0.22 Vs 1.68 ± 0.20, P ≥ 0.05) and speed (8.66 ± 0.42 Vs 8.79 ± 0.46, P ≥ 0.05) between senior secondary school girls students of Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
