Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Thrower’s Ten Exercise 
program which has impressive results in upper extremity sports in wheelchair basketball and 
basketball players. Twelve male wheelchair basketball players with average of 35,6±10,9 years 
and twelve male basketball players with average of 28,9±7,2 years were included in the study. 
Design: Cross-sectional study. 
Method: J-Tech medical tracker freedom was used for measuring upper extremity muscle 
power and range of motion. Medicine ball throw test was used for plyometric power. Athletes 
were involved in 8 weeks Thrower’s Ten exercise program. After 8. Weeks and 12. Weeks 
assessments were repeated. 
Statistical Analysis Plan: The data was analyzed using SPSS software version SPSS 21 (IBM 
Inc., Armonk, NY, USA). Type 1 error was set 5% and 95% confidence interval was used for 
all analysis. Numerical data was shown with mean and standard deviation. To determine 
between group differences in independent groups Mann-Whitney-U test was used. Benferroni 
correction was used for non-parametric post-hoc analysis. In order to analyze within group 
changes Friedman non parametric analysis of variance was used. To determine the statistically 
significant differences occurred between two dependent groups Wilcoxon test was used for 
post-hoc analysis.
