Kabaddi is one of the ancient games in India which was initially played among men as a determination of strength in competition. Later Women’s Kabaddi has taken its initiation and today irrespective of gender, the game of Kabaddi is being admired by all individuals across the nations. Day by day, the competition levels in the game are enhancing and the same is the case with the skills and techniques. The bodily measurements and maintenance of fitness is the key requirement for performance enhancement. This study aims at comparing the selected anthropometric measurements among men and women Kabaddi players. 40 regular men and women Kabaddi players were taken as sample of the study and 6 selected anthropometric measurements namely Height, Weight, Hand Length, Hip Circumference, Leg Length and Calf Girth were taken as variables for the study. It was found that there was not notable difference in the lower body measurements i.e. leg length and calf girth but the height, weight and the two upper body measurements i.e. hand length and hip circumference varied in raiders and defenders with respect to gender.
