Abstract

The subject of this study is to determine predictive contributions of morphological characteristics and motor abilities on the 60m hurdles, with an aim to form a group of easily applicable field tests so as to identify boys who are talented in hurdle racing. The subject sample of this study was comprised of 60 boys aged 12-13. The variable sample consisted of a 60m hurdles criterion variable and a set of 13 predictor variables comprising of morphological characteristics, speed - strength abilities and the subjects' coordination qualities.  Applying the regression analysis, the predictive contribution of a complete variable set of morphological characteristics and motor abilities was determined as an above average statistical significance, influencing 60m hurdle outcome. The greatest individual statistically significant predictive contribution was achieved by the variables of speed-strength quality assessment: 20m flying start race result with a standing long jump; and only one variable from the field of morphological characteristics: the shin length. The results support the following conclusion: the two specific variables of speed-strength quality, and 20m flying start race results along with standing long jump, can be relevant predictors of successful outcome in hurdle races.
