Journal Title: Fizička kultura - Year 2013, Vol 67, Issue 2

Abstract

This paper contains a comparative analysis of competition routines with a hoop, ball or rope of the top six competitors at the World Championship in Moscow 2010 and the top six competitors at the Serbian Championship in Belgrade 2010. This analysis was conducted on the basis of the proportion of body diffi culties from various structural groups (leaps, balances, pirouettes, fl exibilities and waves) comprised within the routines of the competitors with corresponding apparatus (hoop, ball, rope) in both championships. The aim of this research was to identify the similarities and differences in the structure of leaps, pirouettes, balances and elements of fl exibilities and waves of the fi rst six competitors in both championships by analyzing their routines on video recordings. The fi ndings discovered that the competitors in the World Championship demonstrated a considerably higher level of technical value in their routines compared to the Serbian competitors. The competitors at World level perform diffi culties of greater average diffi culties from all structural groups in their routines with a hoop, ball and rope and these differences are generally important from a statistical point of view. The greatest differences were noticed in pirouettes, whereas differences in the structure of fl exibilities were the least, compared to other structural groups.
