The aim of this study is to examine ability of jump performance on the sand, wood and taraflex surface in 14 -16 age female volleyball players. Twenty female subjects were participated in this study. Players averaged 15.10±1.07 years of age, 172.40±14.56 cm of body height and 60.00±6.40 kg body weight. Each jumping measurement tests were taken into 3 days. Subjects were performed three different jumping tests; counter movement jump (CMJ), squad jump (SJ) and stiffness jump (stiffness peak jump (SPJ) and stiffness average jump (SAJ)) test using by Free Jump (Sensorize Rome, Italy). The results revealed that there was a significant differences between sand to wood and taraflex surface in CMJ, SJ and both Stiffness Jump. Moreover only Stiffness Average Power differences were found between wood and taraflex surface. Jumping performance of the subjects was significantly higher on the taraflex surface compared to sand surface and it could be concluded that the surface differences affect the jumping performance.
