Abstract

Tennis is an athletic complex game that places great demands on tennis players and their motor skills. Agility is an important component that they must possess. In order to be successful in rallies, players must perform quick, multi-directional movements in response to the high speed of the ball and/or the opponent's position. The aim of the study is to establish the current state of motor quality 'agility' of students from Sofia University participating in tennis classes. Methods: For the purposes of the study, we used field testing, analyticalsynthetic and mathematical-statistical methods (variation analysis, sigma method). Results: The data from the study are based on the results of three tests - "Fan", "Compass" and "Pair of compasses". The totality of the variation analysis provides information on the state of agility in the movement of the subjects studied. Conclusions: The standard tables for assessing the motor quality 'agility' will serve sports specialists and teachers to assess the quality of skills acquired by student-tennis players in the learning process. In sports practice, agility is a component related to the coordination and motor abilities of tennis players in mastering the basic technical elements in tennis. That's why we recommend periodic control of the different manifestations of agility, which is essential for tennis training of students as well as in their sports training activity.
