The players continued their badminton training for 8 weeks. After and before the 8 week training, their 15 m speed, vertical jump, standing broad jump, hand grip strength and flexibility tests were conducted. To analyses the data, paired t-test was used to compare the pre- and post-test tests. After the badminton training of the 8 weeks, subjects’ vertical jump, the hand grip strenght insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(right hand); and flexibility performances increased significantly insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);. There was no significant difference in standing broad jump, 15 m speed and lefht hand-grip strength between pre- and post-test insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p>0.05);. As a result, it can be said that the badminton training of an 8-week might improve vertical jump, flexibility and hand grip strength in 10-12 years old badminton players. Howerever , the training may not have any effect on their 15 m speed and standing broad jump performance.
