Abstract: Background: Wrestling is a sport for everyone , athletes of all sizes and ability are drawn to wrestling for the simple reason that it is fun. It is a sport that tests the strength, stamina, and skill of two opponents.Wrestling is a physical chess match featuring moves and counter moves, endurance, strength, intelligence, and quickness.Inspite of all these complexities, a key area that plays an important role in Wrestling is a wrestler's physical fitness. Objective:To assess the physical fitness index in Indian wrestler's by Harvard step test and also to compare fitness with age and sex matched sedentary controls. Method:35 wrestler's divided into two groups depending on duration of training and age and sex matched 35 controls were the participants...........

Abstract: During the middle of the first decade this century, bat makers began innovating with handle designs, altering and going over through the high quality of material that is predominantly constructed and produced from rattan (also known as cane wood). The handle is made from cane with strips of cork or rubber dividing the cane into sections running the length of the handle, this construction has been designed to give the handle suitable damping and stiffness properties. By having good physical properties like moisture content, density, and mechanical properties like flexibility, stiffness, durability, lightness and having natural strength to resist the capacity of force produced by the ball impacting over 100mph, due to these characteristics that are needed into the cricket bat handles, rattans are considered as unique multifunctional raw materials for the manufacturing and construction of cricket bat handle by the different sports manufacturing industries.

Abstract: Eye and hand dominance, as a laterality index, represents structural and functional asymmetries of brain hemispheres. Since the second half of the twentieth century, researchers were concerned with the contribution of hand and eye dominance to aiming skills. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of ipsilateral and contralateral eye-hand dominance of adolescent tennis athletes in tennis serve accuracy. Thirty-sixadolescent tennis players, 23 males and 13 females, mean age 13.3 (SD= ±1.47 years) participated in this study. Participants mean training age was two to ten years. According to ipsilateral and contralateral eye-hand dominance, sample was divided into two groups: contralateral eye-hand dominance group, including 18 participants (12 males and 6 females..........

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of self-affirmation and mental imagery on skills of teenage footballers of Tehran. This research is a pretest - post-test with control group and its statistic society consists of teenage footballers of Homa team in Tehran. The instrument of this research to measure the mental skills was OMSAT-3, in which pre-test and post-test and visual imaging and self-talk interventions were used for 14 sessions and 2 times each week. To analyze the data, descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used and to determine the normal data the Shapirovic-Luhn test and covariance test were used. The results of research showed that positive self-talk and imagery have significant influence in response to stress, relaxation, fear and focus control but have.......
