During which phase of meiosis do spindle fibers move the sister chromitatdes to the center of cells?

That would be anaphase I of meiosis. We know the question is concerning meiosis and not mitosis because it involves homologous chromosomes. Anaphase I begins when the kinetochore fibers stemming from the centrioles "grab" the centromeres of homologous chromosomes and "pull" them towards opposite ends of the cell.The mechanisms are a little more complicated than "grabbing" and "pulling," but for this question the mechanisms are of little importance.
