Abstract The purpose of the study was to find out the relationship of anthropometric measurements and spiking ability. To achieve this purpose of the study, various football teams participated in the South Zone Inter University Volleyball Tournament for men and those teams, which entered into the pre-quarter finals stage were contacted and selected. From that one hundred and sixty eight university male volleyball players from fourteen universities (n = 12), were selected. The average age of the subjectswas twenty three years ranging from 18 to 25 years. The variables of body weight, standing height, arm span, hand span, palm length, leg length, thigh girth and calf girth were recorded. The score of the spiking test was the number and was average of the threetrials. The data so obtained was statistically treated and analyzed. For this purpose, the performance of subjects on spiking ability (AAPHER volleyball skills wall pass test) was considered the dependent variable and themeasurements of body weight, standing height, arm span, hand span, palm length, leg length, thigh girth and calf girth constituted the independent variables.The statistical tool used for the present study was correlation, Pearson Product Moment correlation test and Regression Co-efficient for the predicted score was applied. The selected anthropometric variables such as, body weight, height, arm length, leg length, palm span, thigh girth and calf girth, in the multiple regression equation has high significant positive relationship with the criterion variable - the spiking ability.
Keywords anthropometric variables, spiking ability, ANOVA
