Thigh and lower leg length determines the vertical propelling force generated through the boney levers of the lower body. Thus it is presumed that greater size of these lower extremities will give advantage in vertical jump to the individual. Vertical jump is a very important determinant of a volleyballer’s performance. Fundamental skills of volleyball like servicing, passing, setting, smashing and blocking, have specific requirement of this ability. The purpose of this research work was to compare the Thigh and lower leg length of high and low performance Indian volleyball players. 50 subjects of each of high and low performance volleyball players’ data was taken for analyzing the Thigh and lower length. High and low performance volleyball players were selected from Senior national, All India inter-varsity, zone, State, North zone, Inter-varsity, District tournaments. Z-test analyses with one tail test, concluded the mean Thigh and lower leg length, of high performance volleyball players to be significantly greater than the mean thigh and lower leg length of low performance volleyball players.
