METHODOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING COORDINATION ABILITIES IN 10-12-YEAR-OLD TRAMPOLINISTS AT THE STAGE OF SPORTS SPECIALIZATION

The purpose of the study is to improve the training process of 10-12-year-old trampolinists through the use of a developed methodology for developing coordination abilities, based on the application of balance exercises in both static and dynamic conditions during the stage of sports specialization.
Research methods and organization. The study utilized an analysis of scientific and methodological literature, the control exercise method, expert evaluation, the computer stabilometry method, pedagogical experiments, pedagogical observations, and mathematical-statistical methods. The methodology developed for the development and enhancement of coordination abilities in trampolinists aged 10–12 at the stage of sports specialization was tested at the Regional State Autonomous Institution of Additional Education, Sports School "Regional Center for Martial Arts" in Khabarovsk. The innovativeness of the proposed methodology lies in the use of various balance exercises in both static and dynamic conditions. The participants performed these exercises on the floor, on an unstable support, and on an acrobatic track. In addition to these exercises, exercises aimed at developing equilibrium were employed, performed with both open and closed eyes, while circular and rotational movements were added to increase their difficulty. The exercises were conducted at the beginning of the main part of the session and were combined into complexes of five exercises, which were not repeated, and their difficulty continuously increased. Each complex was used for a period of two weeks.
Research results and conclusions. The results obtained showed an improvement in performance in almost all tests used to assess the coordination abilities of athletes in both groups, with more significant changes observed in the trampoline athletes of the experimental group. Training according to the experimental methodology had a significant impact on the technical preparedness of athletes aged 10-12 when performing basic elements in trampoline jumps. The results obtained during the experiment demonstrated the effectiveness of applying the developed methodology in the training process of trampoline athletes aged 10-12. This was evidenced by a significant increase in their level of coordination abilities, as well as an improvement in technical preparedness when performing basic elements on the trampoline.
