Findings: The r -value between standing broad jump and jump and reach of Athlete boys [.91(<0.05)], and non-athlete boys [.61(<0.05]. Result: The values indicated that there was a positive relation between standing broad jump and Jump and Reach performance of athlete boys as well as Non-Athlete boys between standing broad jump and jump and reach performance.
