Development gymnastics is the form of gymnastics in which the principal purpose is improving regular biological growth and health status of children and youth. For this reason, it is very interesting to analyze the relationship of certain anthropological dimensions and motor space of subjects being engaged in a program of development gymnastics. At the sample of 138 subjects included in program of development gymnastics aged 9-11, from the biggest cities of Vojvodina, a test battery of eight anthropometrical variables and one motor test 'obstacle course backwards' to estimate functional coordination was implemented. Following the application of linear regression analysis, on the basis of coefficient of determination, it was found that morphoiogical space evaluated with eight anthropometric measures explained about 20 per cent criterion variable to estimate functional coordination, which is statistically significant at the significance level of P=0,00. Analyzing partially, the mentioned relation mostly contribute to variables 'forearm girth' and 'abdominal skin fold'. Analyzing the relations of morphological factors and functional coordination by application of factor analysis (Hotelling's method of principal components), statistically significant relation at the significance level of P=0,00 was determined, both for the whole predictor system of anthropometrical variables, as well as for partial analysis of each estimated morphological factor. The results of this paper confirmed that morphological characteristics of young girls are significantly related with functional coordination. .
