Abstract
By means of Hotelling method of canonical correlation analysis we have established the correlation of situation-related motor variables, accuracy of hitting the target, handling the ball, speed of running with the ball, strength with which the ball is hit and the speed of curvilinear running, with the criterion concerning the achievements in football. This criterion has been defined as the variables of attack and defense technique, creativity, commitment and responsibility. The results of the research are two pairs of canonical factors. The first factor is defined by the following techniques: attack, defense and creativity, the strength of hitting the ball with the leg, elevation accuracy and the speed of running with the ball at the right angle. The second factor has a bipolar character. The positive pole carries the definition of responsibility and behaviour, whereas the negative pole carries the definition of creativity. This factor has been defined by rectilinear bouncing, dribble with the ball, dribble without the ball and the strength of kicking the ball in the jump. The following tests are recommended as suitable for selection and control of the level of training: strength of kicking the ball while standing (SNESMO), the speed of running with the ball along the 20m track (SNBV20), horizontal bouncing off the surface, elevation accuracy at the distance of 25m (SNRE25) and the speed of running with the ball at the right angle (SNBUPP).
