Abstract :This study was carried out with the aim of stating whether or not playing goalball is effective on the duration of aural reaction, the power of hand and grasping, flexibility and balance of the individuals those visually disabled in different degrees. For this purpose, in the province Van, 30 experimental subjects were included  in the study, 15 subjects of the study were of  an advancing group whose visual degrees were varied between B1 and B3 and other 15 subjects were of not doing sports . The average age of those subjects was 31.53 ± 9.19. The average age of those doing sport was 2, 93 ± ,88 years. The test of the right and left aural reaction of the subjects was defined with the device New Test 1000. Also, their grasping power was measured with Grip Strength Dynamometer. In addition, the test of flexibility of subjects was applied twice and the highest grade was recorded.  In the hopping test, those completed the test were evaluated with insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(+);, and those not completed the test were evaluated with insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(-);. Then, the digital data was transferred to electronic environment. One way variance analysis Mann –Whitney insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(One Way); and T Tests were used for statistical analyses of the data.      In conclusion, it was figured out that there isn`t any significant difference on account of height, weight, flexibility and hopping test insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p Ë‚ 0, 05);.  It was assigned that there is a difference insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p Ë‚ 0, 01); between the groups in duration of right hand aural reaction and left hand grasping power; there are significant differences between the groups in age, duration of left hand reaction and right hand grasping power.
