Sažetak
The aim of this research is to determine whether there is an influence of morphological characteristics and motor skills on the success of students in the 50-meter kayak sprint. It will be determined to what extent the result is influenced by morphological features and motor skills, and how important is the acquisition of knowledge of the basic techniques of paddling and managing a kayak, considering that all the respondents are beginners and encounter kayaking for the first time. The research was conducted on a sample of 74 respondents, which consistedof 27 female and 47 males 3 rd year students of the Faculty of Kinesiology in Zagreb. The averageage of male students was 21.68 years old, and female students were 21.86 years old. The predictor variables consisted of tests to determine morphological characteristics: body weight (mass), body height, fat percentage, and tests to determine motor abilities: figure eight with bending, backward polygon, steps to the side with a 360º turn, non- rhythmic drumming, leg drumming and hand drumming, Oreb's rhythm test, hand tapping, foot tapping, standing long jump, standing high jump. The criterion variable was a test for assessing success in kayaking - a 50- meter sprint. Regression analysis found that there is no significant influence of morphological characteristics and motor skills on the success in paddling a 50-meter kayak among beginners.
