In the analyze of the obtained data in addition to descriptive statistical methods such as Mean (X) and Standard Paired-Samples t-test was used for pre-test and post-test differentiation between the groups. The findings were evaluated at .05 significance level in 95% confidence interval. According to analyze results, after the 10 weeks core trainings, significant differences were found between the participants’ speed, vertical jump, balance, shuttle, right-left hand grip and elasticity results.
