THE IMPORTANCE OF JUDO EXERCISE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF MOTORIC SKILLS OF PUPILS IN THE FIRST EDUCATIONAL PERIOD OF PRIMARY SCHOOL

Magistrsko delo Pomen vadbe juda za motorični razvoj učencev v prvem vzgojno-izobraževalnem obdobju osnovne šole je sestavljeno iz teoretičnega in empiričnega dela. Namen magistrske naloge je bil raziskati razloge za vključevanje otrok v prvem vzgojno-izobraževalnem obdobju v judo in ugotoviti, ali obstajajo razlike v gibalnih sposobnostih med kontrolno in eksperimentalno skupino, ki so posledica vadbe juda. Raziskava je temeljila na neslučajnostnem priložnostnem vzorcu dečkov, kjer so v eksperimentalni skupini sodelovali učenci, ki trenirajo judo v JK Murska Sobota in učenci kontrolne skupine, ki obiskujejo OŠ Beltinci (9 učencev 1. razreda, 10 učencev 2. razreda, 9 učencev 3. razreda). Učenci kontrolne skupine so bili izbrani tako, da se noben izmed njih ni udeleževal nobene organizirane športne vadbe izven rednega pouka. Obe skupini sta bili testirani dvakrat, opravili sta 12 različnih testov telesnih značilnosti in gibalnih sposobnosti. Podatki so bili obdelani na nivoju deskriptivne in inferenčne statistike. Ugotovitve so pokazale, da je bila eksperimentalna skupina boljša v večini opravljenih testov. Največje razlike se pojavljajo pri moči trupa, eksplozivni moči nog in splošni vzdržljivosti ter koordinaciji celotnega telesa. Nekoliko manjše razlike se kažejo le pri gibljivosti in ravnotežju. Iz pridobljenih rezultatov raziskave lahko sklepamo, da vadba juda bistveno pripomore k motoričnemu razvoju dečkov v prvem triletju osnovne šole.This master\u27s degree thesis is made of theoretical and empirical part. The aim was to research the reasons why the children in the first educational period decide to train judo. I also wanted to establish whether there are any differences in physical-motorical abilities between the control and the experimental group that are a consequence of the judo training. The research was based on coincidental temporal sample of boys. In the experimental group there were pupils that train judo in JK Murska Sobota and in the control group there were pupils of Primary School Beltinci (9 pupils of the 1st grade, 10 pupils of the 2nd grade, and 9 pupils of the 3rd grade). None of the boys in the control group were a part of any kind of organised sport activities apart from the regular P. E. lessons in school. Both groups were tested two times and they had to do 12 different tests of physical characteristics and physical-motorical abilities. The data was analysed with the descriptive and inference statistics. The findings showed that the experimental group was better in most of the tests. The biggest differences were in the strength of the torso, the explosive strength of the legs and in the general endurance and coordination of the whole body. A bit smaller differences were shown only in flexibility and balance. Out of the obtained results of the research we can conclude that judo training essentially aids to motorical development of boys in the first three years of primary school
