Playing badminton demands a high level of footwork, balance, grip, coordination, strokes, and serves accuracy. The study aims in measuring eye hand coordination and balance among geriatric badminton players. 43 geriatric badminton players, for Eye-hand coordination was assessed using the ruler drop test, while balance was evaluated using the Dynamic Gait Index (DGI). The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between eye-hand coordination and balance among geriatric badminton players. A correlational study was conducted with 43, geriatric badminton players 71.35±4.99, and Participants completed the ruler drop test and the DGI to assess eye-hand coordination and balance, respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient analysis was performed to determine the relationship between eye-hand coordination and balance. Results: Contrary to expectations, the correlational analysis revealed no significant correlation between eye-hand coordination and balance among geriatric badminton players (r = 0.12, p > 0.416). Thus, the findings suggest that there is no discernible relationship between these two factors in this population.
