Abstract

The purpose of the study was to compare the vital capacity of basketball players at different altitude. To achieve the purpose of the study 10 male basketball players from Sadul Sports School, Bikaner (242 m from sea level) and 10 male from Gurukul senior secondary school, Dharmsala (1500 m from sea level) were selected. To measure the vital capacity dry spirometer were used. To test the significance of the mean difference between players of high altitude and low altitude independent t test was applied. The results showed that the basketball players of higher altitude (5.01 & +.334) demonstrated the better vital capacity
