Abstract:ABSTRACT The data obtained by applying vertical jump test, horizontal jump test, agility test, repeated sprint test to 32 young soccer players in total. 16 of these players were young German soccers players (age: 16,25, (± ,44) year; height: 1 ,73 (± ,07), kg: 61 ,8 (± 12,9) who play for T SV Retzbach in 1 . Amateur league and other 16 of the players were young Turkish soccers players (age: 16,31 (± ,47); height: 1 ,77 (± 06) kg: 68,8 (± 10,3) who play for Schveinfurt Türkiyem Spor. For necessary statistical analysis SPSS 17,0 pocket programme were used. The analysis of research group were performed by descriptive analysis; and Mann Whitney U test were used for unrelated independent samples which is a non-parametric statistics method in comparing some performance features of groups. Significance level were accepted as p<0,05 in all statistical analysis. At the end of statistics, there were no significant difference between age (U-120,00; ,699, height ,212, 20,05) and kg ,126, 20,05) values. There were significant difference between repeated sprint test total durations (U-65,50; 018 repeated sprint test 5 (U=71 ,50; ,033, p<0,05), repeated sprint test 4 (U-65,50; ,018, and repeated sprint test 3 (U-65,50; ,018, of groups. When mean ranks were considered, it was understood that Turkish soccer players were able to carry out the sprint test in a shorter duration than German soccers players. There was significant difference between horizontal jump performances of groups (U-58,50; ,009, p<0,05). When mean ranks were considered, it was understood that in horizontal jump test, Turkish soccer players jumped further than German soccers players. On the other hand, it was found that there were no significant differences between agility (U-97,50; , 250, and vertical jump (U-89,00; , 141 , test performances of groups.
