Objective: Microorganisms have an easier entry into the sportsman’s epidermis, and these make diseases on athletes. The main scope of the study is to search the lack of information about the biological activities of Mentha piperita extracts against bacteria isolated from soccer player’s shoes. Materials and Methods: The bacteria were isolated from soccer player’s shoes from Balikesir Spor soccer team after the competition. The plant extracts were tested by disc diffusion assay for antibacterial activity. In addition, the different extracts of plant were screened by ABTS decolorization assay for antioxidant activity. Results: The highest inhibition zone in bacteria were determined on Staphylococcus sp. BFT12 (21 mm). MIC value was determined as 3250 μg/mL. The highest antioxidant activity of the plant was determined from aqueous extract of plant. This scavenging activity is about 88%. Discussion/Conclusion: The extracts of the plant have high antibacterial and antioxidant potential.
