Engagement in structured physical and sports activities is widely recognized as an effective method for enhancing visual perception and attention levels. Studies have demonstrated that dart training, in particular, has a beneficial effect on visual perception and attention. Research consistently underscores the significance of visual perception and attention in the accuracy of dart throwing. As dart training enhances these cognitive functions, the integration of visual perception and attention-focused instructions has been shown to improve throwing accuracy. However, the existing literature on this topic, especially regarding pre-adolescent populations, remains limited. Furthermore, evaluating the impact of a structured dart exercise program on both attention and visual perception simultaneously is considered a crucial factor that underscores the significance of this research. This study aimed to determine the effects of dart exercises on the visual perception and attention parameters of pre-adolescent students. The study included 45 preschool children, with 23 in the experimental group (12 girls and 11 boys) and 22 in the control group (11 girls and 11 boys). Baseline testing of attention and visual perception was conducted prior to the start of the structured dart exercise program, which lasted for 12 weeks. The exercises were performed three days a week, with each session lasting 90 minutes. After 12 weeks, visual perception and d2 attention tests were administered to both the exercise and control groups.
