Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare selected psychomotor variables between different levels of female cricket players. Fifty female cricket players(25 inter university level +25 inter college level) were selected for this study. The age of the subjects was ranged between 18 to 25 years. Psychomotor variables:speed andagility were selected for this study. With regard to the purpose of this study,descriptive statistics andindependent t-test was applied to find out mean differences. The level of significance was set at 0.05. The results showed that there were significant differences for psychomotor variables: speed and agility between inter university level and inter college level femalecricket players.
