There is significant difference found between the mean value of motor fitness components (muscular endurance (F= 62.67) and agility (F= 3.104) among different match practice group. And no significant differences were found for the mean value of speed (F=2.227) among different match practice group. With the limitations of the study it may be concluded that, there was no significant difference found between the different match practice groups i.e. Hockey, Football, Basketball, Volleyball, and Handball in relation to their motor fitness component (speed) and there was also no significant difference found between the hockey and handball in relation to their motor fitness component (agility).
