Sažetak
Characteristic influence of certain motor abilities and skills, as well as morphological characteristics, on the rhythmic gymnastics (RG) specific performance skills of novices in the sport has not been appropriately investigated yet. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to establish probable influence of characteristic motor skill factors on the jumping/leaping performance in a sample of 55 novice female gymnasts (mean age 7.1 &plusmn ; ; ; ; ; 0.3 years), who had a year of training experience. The sample of variables consisted of 12 tests of basic motor abilities and 9 RG-specific leaping performance tests, in which 5 experienced RG-judges evaluated performance. Canonical correlation analysis was utilized to establish relations between the scores of motor tests and the leaping/jumping performance marks. According to the linear correlation and canonical correlation results, coordination (coordination in rhythm, primarily) and power (leg power, in the first place), contributed mostly to the performance evaluation marks assigned for the RG leaping elements. Although expected, the influence of flexibility on the leaping performance of novices in RG was not evident.
