The age group of the subject was ranged from 14–16 years. They were selected randomly.To measure the physical fitness variables i.e. cardiovascular endurance (Harvard Step Test), Speed (50 yard dash), Agility (4x10 Yards shuttle run), Explosive leg strength (standing oad jump) and Muscular endurance (one minute bent knee sit up) was used.To compare the physical fitness variables ‘t’ test was used to calculate the collected data. Mean, standard deviation and ‘t’ test was used in the present study. The significant level was set at 0.05 level of confidence. Statistical calculation of the gathered data showed that there were significant difference between CBSE and WBBSE student in relation to Cardiovascular Endurance, speed, explosive leg strength, muscular endurance but in relation to shuttle run insignificance differences were found between the CBSE and WBBSE school students.
