Abstract :
The purpose of the study was to find out the influence of proprioceptive training, yoga training and combined training programme on physical variable dynamic balance among school level kho-kho players. To achieve the purpose of the study sixty (N=60) male kho-kho players were randomly selected. The age group of the subject was 14 to 17 years. Selected subjects were equally divided into four groups namely one control and three experimental group. Control group was not given any type of training. Experimental group was given proprioceptive training, yoga training and combined proprioceptive and yoga training for a period of ten weeks. The pre-test and post-test data on dynamic balance was collected on both the groups before and after the experimental training collected data was analysed by using ANCOVA to find significant difference among mean at 0.05 level of confidence. It was concluded that experimental group combined proprioceptive and yoga training group significantly (p ≤ 0.05) improved the dynamic balance when compared to control group of the school level kho-kho players.
