Correlations of Motor Abilities and Motor Skills in 11-Year-Old Pupils

The research has been conducted with the aim of establishing relations between motor abilities and motor skills of representative teaching themes of the official curriculum of physical education for the fifth grade pupils in primary school. Accordingly, 21 tests for the estimation of motor abilities and 7 tests for the estimation of motor skills were applied on the sample of 152 eleven year old pupils. The results of correlation analysis indicated a high level of linear connection of the two observed groups. Two significant canonical roots were isolated by the use of the canonical correlation analysis. The first root was defined by the relations between the tests High jump (scissors technique), Fast running (up to 60m) from the low start, Basic floor shoot (handball) and Volley above the forehead from the middle position (volleyball) with coordination, frequency movement velocity, and static and explosive strength. The second root is defined by two relations. The first points to the connection of the results of the tests Hand standing along the vertical surface with the factors of strength, balance, flexibility and coordination, while the other is based on the connection between the tests Basic floor shoot (handball) and Volley above the forehead from the middle volleyball position (volleyball) with the trunk repetitive strength and explosive strength of arms and shoulders.
