Well-built or strong core muscle was believed to help athletics performance; few scientific studies have been conducted to identify the effectiveness of core strength training for enhancing athletics performance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Core strength training on athletes sprinting performance. The study applied quantitative research approach and employ quasi experimental design to attain the intended objectives. For this study the researcher has selected all 24male short distance athletes who participate in 100M and 200M sprint running in Tenta athletics training center as a sample by using comprehensive sampling methods. Thus athletes were assigned randomly into two groups, 12 of them experimental and the rest 12 as control group. They were in the age category of 17 up to 25 years. Core strength training (CST) program was administered three days per week for about eight consecutive weeks for the experimental group in addition to the regular training program and the control group has only received the previously regular training program. Pre and post training tests were conducted to measure the athletes’ sprinting performance and selected fitness variable changes for maximal speed, strength, explosive power and speed endurance. The data was collected using appropriate performance test such as 30M sprint test for maximal speed fitness, Core Muscle Strength & Stability test for strength fitness, vertical and long jump test for explosive power fitness and 150M run test for speed endurance. After gathering the PRT and POT value the data was analyzed by using SPSS version 26.0 statistical software of paired sample T test with the level of significant at (P<0.05) to know the difference between pre and post test results. The results showed that eight weeks core strength training has significant effect on maximal speed, strength, explosive power and speed endurance for experimental group at (P<0.05), however, there were no significant improvements on comparison group. Based on this finding, it can be concluded that core strength training helps to improve maximal speed, strength, flexibility and coordination, explosive power and speed endurance of sprinters. Key words: core strength training, maximal speed, strength, explosive power and speed endurance.
