THE EXPLOSIVE STRENGTH OF GIRLS OF THE YOUNGER SCHOOL AGE 2018 796.41-055.2 796.012.1 http://ezaposleni.singidunum.ac.rs/rest/sciNaucniRezultati/oai/record/2/7621 http://casopisi.junis.ni.ac.rs/index.php/FUPhysEdSport/article/view/3310/2743 M. Paunović M. Đurović S. Veličković M. Živković N. Stojanović Physical education (PE) at a younger school age is very important. But in practice, this course is not carried out regularly or is not performed by PE teachers. The problem of the research was to determine whether the developmental gymnastics program had an effect on the development of explosive strength with younger school age girls. The sample of participants for the experimental group consisted of 59 girls and for the control group 45 girls aged 9 to 11. To determine the level of explosive strength three tests were used. Data processing was performed by the statistical program SPSS v. 20. For all the data, the parameters of descriptive statistics were calculated. To determine the differences between the groups, a t-test for independent samples was used with a calculation of significance of the size of the difference (Cohen's d). The research has shown the effects of the developmental gymnastics program on the development of explosive strength among girls aged 9 to 11. Differences in explosive strength were identified in favor of the experimental group in two out of the three variables. The results obtained accurately indicate that the participants included in the development gymnastics program have a significantly higher level of explosive strength than the participants who only attended PE classes article 10.22190/FUPES171022046P 16 3 677 685 1451 740X Facta Universitatis, Series: Physical Education and Sport
