Handball is fast body contact sports which require good physique. Hirata (1979) and Khosla (1983) demonstrated that the players in medal-winning teams were taller than the others, thus suggesting how important body height and mass are to play handball successfully. Despite the game’s world-wide popularity, there have been few other investigations of anthropometric and physiological characteristics of elite male handball players: most notably, recent data are lacking. Previous reports have shown that body structure and morphological characteristics can determine the selection of participants in many sports. Results of cross-sectional anthropometric studies have tended to suggest that certain physical factors including body composition (body fat, body mass, muscle mass) and physique (somatotype) significantly influence athletic performance (Carter 1984). The purpose of the study was to compare the height and weight among all India inters University male handball players. A total of three hundred and twenty (320) male handball players were selected as subjects from All India Inter University Handball Tournament, organised by Periyar University, Salem, Tamilnadu. In which four university teams from five zones (East, South, West, North and Central) took part in competition. Each team constitutes of 16 players each. The mean age, height and weight of the selected subjects are 22.92 ± 2.04 years, 176.38 ± 4.70 cm and 71.40 ± 6.73 Kg respectively. The height and weight was selected as criterion variables. To measure height stadiometer was used and weight was measured through weighing machine. The equipments used in the present study were reliable and accurate.
