Abstract

The purpose of the study is to identify the effects of special educational models for young athletics by utilizing basic motor skills, for kids between (7-9) years of age. The sample of the study was (N=22) kids, classified on a random basis into two groups. The experimental group (n=12) employed the intervention model, and the control group (n=10) where have utilized regular class activities. Several instruments were used to measure the 3 dependent variables.  The results showed significant improvement in the experimental group after the application of the teaching program. Significant differences were noticed between the two groups showing that the experimental group had a higher level of improvement on most of the variables of the study. The researcher recommends the use of the special teaching model employed in the experimental group in the present study in schools and recommends the use of physical/movement intelligence evaluation in the determination of sport-talented children.
