The Pre-test/Post-test control designed was utilized in carrying out the study. The following research questions assisted to shape the research – To what extent will exercise training programmes influence the auditorily impaired pupils’ Competency in Elementary Science with a research hypothesis that stated that – structured exercise training programme will have noinfluence on the competency of auditorily impaired pupils’ in Elementary Science. The descriptive statistics and a one-way ANOVA analysis were used. Result obtained indicated a near better result for the experimental group over the other groups.
