The purpose of the study was to ascertain the relationship of selected power variables to performance in middle distance events (800M AND 1500M). The subjects for the study were ten athletes in each of the selected events who were regularly training at the DDA Athletic Academy, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, New Delhi. The analysis of data employing Person’s Product Moment Correlation Method revealed that performance in 800m was significantly related to standing broad jump and vertical jump. Performance in 1500m was significantly related to the scores in standing board jump and vertical jump.
