This study is pursued to find the effectiveness of Structured Aquatic Training Program for children with Cerebral Palsy. Sensory profile was used to assess the effectiveness of endurance and tone, of14 Children with CP average of age nine years, purposively selected from Asha AWWA school at Delhi, India. Participants were divided into Experimental and Control groups. Result of Two Way ANOVA reflects positive accelerated transformation only in experimental group, showing moderate to considerable benefits through the 9 weeks training program. In addition, individualized scale of improvement was also studied, which resulted into minor to major enhancement of endurance and tone among all the experimental group participants. Hence a prolonged Structured Aquatic Training Program (intervention) is off paramount to get the best results. These findings also enhance the preceding research work based on aquatic intervention.
