INFLUENCE OF MOTOR SKILLS ON SPRINTER RUNNING PERFORMANCE

Abstract

Motor skills have a significant impact on success in sprint running, as they enable optimal development of movement speed and efficiency. Research shows that there is a positive correlation between developed motor skills and better results in sprinting disciplines. The aim of this research is to determine statistically significant relationships between motor skills and individual criterion variables of sprinting speed in high school students aged 68 high school students in Novi Pazar, ages 15 and 16. Based on the results of the research, it was determined that the motor coordination tests with the stick (MKOR) and agility on the ground (MONT) have the highest correlation. These findings indicate that coordination and agility are interrelated components of motor skills, which together contribute significantly to the overall sports performance of high school students how specific training programs aimed at improving coordination and agility can affect sprint performance in high school students, considering that motor tests of coordination with the bat and agility on the ground showed the highest correlation with success in sprint running
