Sažetak
This research was done to determine the correlation among the motor abilities and success of kinesiology freshmen in the javelin throwing. The total number of participants (N=53) was divided in two groups. The first group (N=34) was a group of students who did not have a sufficient knowledge of javelin throwing, while the second group (N=19) was a group of students who had the good demonstration of the javelin throwing knowledge. The motor abilities were determined by tests of the assessment of speed, explosive and maximum strength. A correlation among the motor abilities and results in javelin event was determined by using standard correlation analysis. According to the obtained results, we can make the conclusion that the motor abilities (starting acceleration and explosive strength) have the significant impact on the results of criterion variable only between the students whose knowledge of the javelin throwing is at the high level.
