Sažetak
Fundamental motor skills (FMS) are defined as a standard motor activity that forms the basis for more advanced and more specific motor activities. Mastering FMS allows good preconditions for the successful realization of specific motor skills. Although FMS is acquired through the development process, it has been shown that not only free play stimulates their development, but also quality instruction is necessary. There are different classifications of FMS and the prevailing opinion is that FMS can be divided into two categories: basic locomotor skills and manipulative skills. Measuring instruments for assessing FMS can be divided into tests that are focused on the quantification of performance and the quality of performance. For the purpose of this research, the qualitative test "Test of Gross Motor Development - 2" was used. Some research suggests that there are significant differences in FMS between genders ; however, it is not yet clear to what extent children's activities affect the above mentioned differences. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine gender differences in manipulative and locomotor FMS as well as differences between basic locomotor and manipulative skills in boys and girls attending athletic sports school.
