Aspects regarding the development of basic motor skills in 10- 12 year old children in football. Perspectives of the coach

The 10-12 years age category is one of the most important periods in the training of young footballers, especially from the perspective of motor skills. Psycho-physical development allows the expansion of gestural accumulations, the rapid assimilation of new motor skills and the formation of a culture of movement. At this age, there is an increase in motor guidance capacity, temporal differentiation, rhythm and reaction. By merging the new skills with the ones already learned, in an integrative way, the prerequisites for the consolidation of a multilateral motor baggage are ensured. The role of the coach in the football game is to ensure the development of the children on a sporting, social, psychological and educational level. The coach, in order to succeed in these things, must know the child, know the particularities of age and, last but not least, take into account his abilities. Thus, this study proposes the application of a questionnaire to the coaches from Bihor County, regarding their vision on the development of motor skills in 10-12 year-old children in the game of football. Analyzing the responses of the coaches, we can affirm the fact that most of the respondents are very well prepared from a theoretical point of view.
