This study was planned to investigate whether sports have an effect on height, weight and hand grip strength and whether different sports branches such as; volleyball, basketball, football, handball are meaningful in terms of these features, and also how effective the family income levels are in the preferences of the sports branches of the subjects. Totally 100 students with a mean age of 16.55 ± 0.091 were included in the study. Eighty of them are those who play basketball n = 20 , football n = 20 , volleyball n = 20 , and handball n = 20 in sports clubs and school teams. The control group, on the other hand, was taken on a voluntary basis from high school students n = 20 who took only two hours of physical education lessons per week. The height and weight of the subjects were taken. Right and left-hand grip strengths of them were measured. The higher of the two measurements was evaluated. In addition, subjects were asked about their family income levels. Statistical Package for Social Sciences SPSS 16.00 package program was used in the statistical analysis of these data. As a result, there was a significant relationship between the groups who played sports or not in the height variable at p < 0.05 and in terms of family income levels at p < 0.01. It was determined that the other parameters between these two groups were not significant but there was significance at the level of p < 0.01 in terms of height, right-hand grip strength and family income among all groups, and p < 0.05 in left-hand grip strength
