Therefore, the aim of the study was to examine the performance parameters of the Turkey junior national fencing team in terms of gender. Nineteen national athletes (9 male age; 15.55±.88 years, body height;1.79±.05 cm, body mass; 71.22±9.33 kg, 10 female age;15.60±1.34, body height; 1.69±.06 cm, body mass; 57.00±8.81 kg) in the national team camp participated to the study voluntarily. In the study, anthropometric measurements and performance parameters of fencers were measured. In the study, handgrip strength, agility T-test, Yo-Yo IR1 test, vertical jump test (anaerobic power), balance test, 30-sec push-up, and 30-sec sit-up tests were performed. The analysis of the study was made using 24 SPSS package programs. Pearson Correlation test, paired-sample t-test, and independent-sample t-test were used. When the performance parameters of male and female fencers were compared, there were significant differences in favor of males in the parameters of the dominant hand, non-dominant handgrip strength, agility, aerobic endurance, anaerobic power, agility, 30s push-ups, and 30s sit-ups, but no statistically significant difference was found between total balance scores. In both groups, it was found that the dominant hand produced statistically more handgrip strength than the other hand. There was a significant relationship between dominant handgrip strength with anaerobic power and push-ups with total balance in male fencers&#039; performance parameters. When the performance values of female fencers were examined; there was a significant relationship between anaerobic power with sit-up and both handgrips strength. Also, there was a relationship between dominant handgrip strength and non-dominant handgrip strength with the sit-up test. A correlation was found between dominant handgrip strength and non-dominant handgrip strength.When the performance parameters of fencing athletes are examined; the performance parameters of male fencers are better than female fencers. The increase in one performance parameter also can affect the development of the others.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Eskrim sporu doğası gereği içerisinde yüksek aerobik ve anaerobik aktiviteler bulundurmaktadır ve ayrıca yaş, cinsiyet, teknik düzeyi gibi farklı parametrelerden etkilenebilir. Bu yüzden, bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye genç milli eskrim takımı sporcularının performans parametrelerinin cinsiyet açısından incelenmesidir. Milli takım kampındaki 19 milli sporcu (9 erkek yaş; 15.55±.88 yıl, boy; 1.79±.05 cm, vücut ağırlığı; 71.22±9.33 kg. 10 kadın yaş;15.60±1.34, boy; 1.69±.06 cm, vücut ağırlığı 57.00±8.81 kg) çalışmaya gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Çalışmada eskrimcilerin antropometrik ölçümleri ve performans parametreleri ölçülmüştür. Çalışmada performans parametrelerini belirlemek için  el kavrama kuvveti, çeviklik t-testi, Yo-Yo testi, dikey sıçrama testi (anaerobik güç) ,denge testi, 30sn şınav ve 30sn mekik testleri uygulanmıştır. Çalışmanın analizi 24 SPSS paket programı kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Pearson Korelasyon testi, Paired sample t-testi ve bağımsız örneklem t-testi kullanılmıştır.Kadın ve erkek eskrimcilerin performans parametreleri karşılaştırıldığında, baskın el, baskın olmayan el kavrama kuvvetleri, çeviklik, aerobik dayanıklılık, anaerobik güc, çeviklik, 30sn şınav ve 30sn mekik parametrelerinde erkeklerin lehine anlamlı farklılık bulunurken toplam denge puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılığa rastlanmamıştır. Her iki grup için de baskın olan elin diğer elden istatistiksel olarak daha fazla kavrama kuvveti ürettiği bulunmuştur. Erkek eskrimcilerin performans parametrelerinde baskın el kavrama kuvveti ile anaerobik güç ve toplam denge ile şınav arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur. Kadın eskrimcilerin performans değerleri incelendiğinde; anaerobik gücün mekik ve her iki kavrama kuvveti ile arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Ayrıca mekik ile baskın el kavrama kuvveti ile baskın olmayan kavrama kuvveti arasında ilişki bulunmuştur. Dominant kavrama gücü ile baskın olmayan kavrama gücü arasında bir ilişki bulunmuştur.Eskrim sporcularının performans parametreleri incelendiğinde; erkek eskrimcilerin performans parametreleri kadın eskrimcilere göre daha yüksek olduğu söylenebilir. Bir performans parametresindeki artışın ise diğerlerinin gelişimini de etkileyebileceği sonucuna varılabilir.</p></trans-abstract>
