Abstract
Interests belong to a group of motivational, dynamic personality traits and as such they could be observed as important inner triggers of activities in all areas of creativity. Some researches in the field of education emphasize the processes of discovering, following and developing particular interests as requirements for the success of education in general. Due to the importance of analyzing still insufficiently studied relations between abilities, interests and activities of pupils, especially when a quality strategy of working with motor gifted pupils in the range of process of Physical Education is in question, the aim of this paper has been to find out whether there is a relation between motor success of pupils in the early years of primary school and interests in physical activity. The results have shown that there is a statistically significant correlation (r = 0.549; p = 0.00) between motor success of pupils and interests in physical education, recognized by teachers. The results of this research can serve as a basis for a reliable identification of motor gifted pupils and further work with them in the range of Physical Education, extra-curriculum activities and special school programmes for the gifted.
