© JPES.Objective of the Study: The aim of the study is the examination of the relationship between vertical jump and core performances compared to shooting test and shoot accuracy. Method: The research group comprise of elite female athletes (n=10) competing in the Turkish Basketball Federation Women's 1st League. In the study vertical jump, plank test (core), and shooting test measurements were included. The vertical jump performances of the athletes were measured by usingthe Smart Speed® brand device; the Smart Jump® measuring mat. the "Sport-Specific Core Muscle Strength and Stabilization" test was used to test the athletes’ core performance. The "Aahperd" shooting test was used to determine the athletes’ shooting performance. In addition, the average points per game values to shooting accuracy of the athletes were obtained from the official competition data they played in the 2020-2021 season. The relationship between vertical jump and plank test scores compared to shooting test and shooting accuracy was analyzed statistically (p<0.05). SPSS package program (IBM, 24.0 v) was used for statistical analysis of the data. Findings: According to skewness, and kurtosis coefficients distribution of the datas resulted to be normal (mesocurtical) (±3). Based on the normality of the datas, in order to determine correlations between variables Pearson correlation analysis was used. Conclusion: As a result, it was determined that there was a high level of positive correlation between the vertical jump test and the Aahperd shooting test and the average points per a game values of the athletes participating in the study (p<0.05). In addition, it was determined that there was no significant relationship between the results of the plank (core) test, the average points per a game values and the results of the Aahperd shooting test (p>0.05).
