The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of suryanamaskar practice on speed and explosive power among school handball players. Twenty subjects were selected from St. Britto hr sec school, Madurai during the academic year 2016–2017 for this study. The subject's age ranged from 14 to 17 years. The selected subjects were divided into two groups with ten subjects in each group selected randomly, suryanamaskar practice group and control group. The training periods of experimental groups were six weeks, five days per week with duration of 45 minutes. Control group did not undergo any training programme other than their routine work. The data were collected on speed and explosive power for all the two groups before the experimental period (pre-test), after six weeks of training (post-test) respectively. In order to test the effect of training, the collected data from the two groups before, during and after experimentation on speed and explosive power were statistically analyzed by using T-ratio.
