the objective of the present study was to compare male and female boxers on sports competition
anxiety after 6 weeks of yogic training.
Methodology: for the purpose of the study 20 male (10 nos.) and female (10 nos.) with age ranging from 14
to 17 year of age were selected. The Sports Competition Anxiety measured by Sport Competition Anxiety Test
(SCAT) questionnaire developed by Hypnosis works in the year of 2006 was used to assess the anxiety level
of boxers. The descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation, maximum and minimum were used to
describe the data and for the comparison between the male and female boxers on sports anxiety after six
weeks of yogic training the ANCOVA (Analysis of Covariance) was employed at .05 level of significance.
Results; the mean score of both male and female (20.02 and 20.18) is above the average level and the present
finding also shows that there is no significant difference between male and female boxers on competitive
anxiety after six weeks of yogic training.
