Sažetak
A sample of 125 seven-year-olds was tested using six morphological and eight motor-ability variables with purpose of analyzing the integration of explosive strength of throwing. Sample was split in two groups: experimental (E ; N=68) and control group (C ; N=57). Boys of E group attended three hours of Physical Education class per week as well as three additional sixty-minute periods of athletic training over a period of nine months. C group attended regularly scheduled Physical Education classes only. In coordination with the research goal, relationships of morphological-motor variables with distance ball-throw result as a criterion were analyzed for both E and C groups. Data was processed using regression analysis. Results have clearly shown that values of criterion variable grew and that predicting criteria by applied group of variables gave improved results in final rather than initial measurement. Growth and development, as well as secondary kinesiologic engagement of children contributed to superior results. Resulting integration of ball throwing in E group was higher than the one in C group, due to higher kinesiologic engagement as well as application of wide array of kinesiologic operators used in athletic school.
