Effects of Programmed Training on the Motor Skills of Female Basketball Players in School Sports Societies

School sports societies are organised with the goal to enable pupils to engage in their preferred sports. Also, this system is implemented in certain sports within school sports societies with the aim to facilitate better development of motor and functional abilities, and anthropometric characteristics. During training sessions of school sports societies, pupils should not be exposed to excessive training intensity. The training process should be in compliance with the principles of sports development, but also with the principles of growth and development of children and youth. The aim of this research was to determine the effects of a two-month training on the changes in motor skills in young female basketball players, members of the school sports society. The sample consisted of 10 schoolgirls, members of the school sports society at the Primary School Jabukovac. In the assessment of the effects of a two-month training, a battery of 12 tests was used to measure motor skills. Based on the obtained results it can be concluded that the two-month systematic training process in the school sports society consisting of three 45-minute sessions per week, along with regular PE lessons consisting of 2 lessons per week contributed to the transformational effects of motor skills in young female basketball players. The most significant transformations were observed in explosive strength, coordination and flexibility.
