Background: As for the importance of the mentally handicapped group and the need to take care of them and take care of their abilities to the fullest extent possible and the importance of the movement activities and their role in their lives, there have been numerous programs of interest in this category, represented in spreading sports schools, societies, institutions and clubs that help them to extract their energy to the maximum extent for the capabilities of each individual. (M.Nakayama1981). Through the researchers ’acquaintance with previous studies and Arab and foreign references, they found a few ones with the lack of codified training programs that seek to reach the mentally handicapped to centers and championships as the interest in sports activities for the mentally handicapped increased through the Paralympic Committee that achieves many international championships and centers in various sports. This is what prompted the researchers to think about preparing a proposed program for karate players for people with special needs (Down syndrome). (Morris,t,(1987). Aim: The current research aims to design a proposed training program to improve karate technical performance for players with Down syndrome. Method: An experimental study on the group of mentally disabled people with Down syndrome of the Jesuit Society in Minia, who's totally number was 22 individuals. Results: The proposed training program has a positive impact on improving the skillful aspects (first kata - karate basics) for the mentally handicapped. Conclusion: The current research aims to design a proposed training program to improve the technical performance of karate for people with special needs. Due to the nature of the research and to achieve its goals and hypotheses, the researchers used the experimental approach with the experimental design for one group using the (pre-post) measurements for it.
