Abstract	This study compares agility and balance between cricket and volleyball players, analyzing how these attributes vary due to the specific demands of each sport. The research involved 30 male athletes from both sports, aged 18-30 years, who underwent the Illinois Agility Test and Stork Balance Stand Test. The results showed no significant difference in agility and balance between the two groups, contradicting the initial hypothesis. The findings suggest that despite differing sport-specific training, cricket and volleyball players exhibit comparable levels of agility and balance. The study's results have implications for coaches and trainers in designing sport-specific training programs, highlighting the need for tailored approaches to enhance agility and balance in athletes.
