%X 56 male handball players who play in Super League teams were involved in this study. The anthropometric characteristics,leg forces, the flexibilities, vertical and horizontal jump distances of the subjects whose average age is 24,91 were measured. Inthese measures, the anthropometric set, Seating - Access Test stand, scales, tape measures, Skinfold caliper, and new test 2000device were used. The SPSS 16.0 package program was used to obtain statistical results in this study. To determine the impactof Anthropometric measurements to the distance of horizontal and vertical jumps of athletes, variance analysis was carried out.GLM (General Linear Model) Options from SPSS program and Duncan Multiple Comparison Test were used for varianceanalysis. The significance level was set at 0.01 0.05.By means of the measurements of Elite handball players, it was stated that height, body fat percentage, chest girth, waistgirth, thigh girth, calf girth, biiliak diameter, wrist diameter, the length of thigh, the length of calf, leg strength and flexibility areimportant determinant as statistically to the vertical jump distance (p <0.01). However ,it was observed that ,the age, bodyweight, shoulder girth, forearm girth, wrist girth, femur bikond¨¹ler diameter, chest depth diameter and all arms-length ofhandball players had an impact on the vertical jump distance according to p <0.05 level .It was found that, forearm girth, calflength (p <0.01) with height, body fat percentage, waist girth, diameter of biakromial, biiliak diameter, wrist diameter, chestdepth diameter and flexibility (p <0, 05) of the Elite handball players are effective anthropometric features to the horizontaljump distance.In conclusion, it was stated that the anthropometric features of the Elite-Level Male Handball Team Players have asignificant effect to the vertical and horizontal jump distance of players.
