Abstract

The aims of this study is to determine the anthropometric measurement
physical performance attributes on playing positions which are backlines and
forwards in rugby union. The anthropometric measurement and physical
performance attributes consists of Body Mass Index(BMt), body fat percentage,
agility, power, and maximal aerobic power. Forty (N=40) elite youth rugby players
from Sport School Tunku Mahkota Ismail (SSTMI) were recruited using random
sampling technique. It is hypothesized that backlines position is greater than
forwards position due to their physical performance attributes. The result showed
that there were no significant differences for BMI, body fat percentage, agility and
power for the backlines and forwards positions, but there was significant different
on maximal aerobic power for backlines and forwards. In conclusion, maximal
aerobic power shows asymmetry result. For other result, both positions showed no
differences on anthropometric measurement and physical performance attributes.
