Introduction: In this study was analyzed the successfulness of boys in performing of motor tests for assessing coordination, in relation to the subcutaneous fatty tissue in the reference points of upper arm, back and abdomen. Material and methods: On the sample of respondents (N=588 boys) aged 7 to 11 years, were studied whether there is a statistically significant difference between the two groups of boys. The first of two groups - which results in tests of coordination were in the area of the first 25 percentile, and the second one - which results were from 75th to 100th percentile. Evaluation of coordination included two motor tests: 'obstacle course backwards' and 'slalom with three balls', and in estimation of level of subcutaneous fatty tissue in reference points of upper arm, back and abdomen used calliper of type John Bull. Results: Based on these results has to be mentioned that two groups of respondents were differ in all the variables that evaluated subcutaneous fatty tissue, in favor of the respondents from the first group. Conclusion: Our results suggest that more effective activities aiming to decrease prevalence of overweight among children. The level of subcutaneous fatty tissue assessment has been shown as a very important tool in evaluation coordination and estimation of changes in successfulness in performing motor tests of co-ordination during of growth and development children.
