This research aimed to examine the biomotoric characteristics of Turkish and German young football players living in Germany. 32 football players participated in the research. Repetitive sprint test, agility test, vertical jump test and Sanding long jump test were applied to the football players. The physical and performance characteristics of the research group were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Mann Whitney U test. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the total times of the repeated sprint test and the total times of the repeated sprint test. There was no significant difference between the biomotoric characteristics between the groups, except for repeated 3-4-5 sprints and total times. Turkish football players completed the repetitive sprint test in a shorter time than German football players, but there was no difference in their fatigue index. This result seems meaningful considering that Turkish football players live in Germany, grow up in Germany, have similar environmental conditions, train similarly and play in the same league.
