Background: Dynamic balance is basal ability which desirable in sports that require stability particularly during moving and quickly reacting to changing circumstances. Poor dynamic balance previously has been related with sports injuries. Dynamic balance required while performing tasks in competitive sports like football and basketball. Thus, the purpose of this study is to compare dynamic balance by using modified bass test in male football and basketball players. Method: The study conducted on 50 male players, football (n=25) and basketball (n=25) from sports Academy of Ahmedabad, Gujarat. They were selected for the study with purposive sampling. Dynamic balance was assessed by using Modified Bass Test. Result: Independent t test performed to find the significant difference between football and basketball players. There was significant difference found in dynamic balance by using Modified Bass test between football and basketball players. (p<0.01) Conclusion: Football player displayed higher dynamic balance than Basketball players.
