The purpose of the present study was to compare fatigue index at different times of the day on male handball players. To achieve the purpose 29 male handball players were selected from Department of physical Education and Sports Sciences, Annamalai University. Fatigue index was measured by Running based anaerobic sprint test (RAST). The data was collected at two different times of the day at 07:00 am and 17:00 pm. The collected data was analysed using dependent t test. The result of the study showed significant difference in fatigue index at different times of the day (t = 2.316, p = 0.028). It identified that greater decline in power output is elicited during morning than evening.
