摘要：The purpose of the study was to analyze the differences in diameter between halfback football and hockey players. This study was conducting on 60 football and hockey players with an aim to find out differences in diameter between the halfbacks football (n=30) and halfback hockey (n=30). The data for the present study were collected in the inter college competition organized by Himachal Pradesh University. Each players was tested for various diametric measurements necessary for estimation of humerus diameter, wrist diameter, femur bicondylar diameter and ankle diameter measurements of halfback footballers and hockey players. To analyze the difference in certain diametric measurements between two groups of football and hockey players were determined through „t‟ test. From the findings, ,it may be interpreted that halfbacks of hockey game possessed significantly greater elbow diameter as compared to halfbacks of football game. . Further, although the halfbacks of football game have depicted somewhat higher mean value for wrist diameter and ankle diameter in comparison to halfbacks of hockey game, similarly half back of hockey game depicted somewhat higher mean value for femur bicondylar diameter. But none of such mean differences were found to be significant. In case of wrist diameter, femur bicondylar diameter and ankle diameter there existed no significant differences between the halfback of football and hockey games. Keywords: Anthropometry, diameter
