To evaluate motor preparedness, the study recorded the results of motor tests, body height and weight. The IBM SPSS 20 statistical analysis software was used to process the study materials. A discriminant analysis was performed.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong>. To identify the level of coordination abilities development in girls aged 11, 12 and 13, the following tests can be used: test 4 “Pull-ups (number of times)”, test 2 “Standing long jump (cm)”, test 6 “Evaluation of the sense of movement speed in sprinting”, and test 9 “Static equilibrium evaluation by E. Ya. Bondarevsky’s method”, which characterize relative and speed strength, the sense of running speed and vestibular stability.</p> <p>To identify the state of coordination abilities development in girls aged 12-13, the following tests can be used: test 12 “Rhythmic hand tapping”, test 13 “Rhythmic movements of upper and lower limbs”, test 5 “Sit-ups in 30 seconds”, test 7 “Evaluation of the ability to differentiate movement speed (reproduction accuracy of running speed at 80% intensity of maximum)”, which characterize the movement coordination of different parts of the body, strength endurance of abdominal muscles, and the evaluation of the ability to differentiate movement speed.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> A discriminant analysis made it possible to determine informative indicators for a comprehensive control of coordination abilities development in girls aged 11-13; to answer the questions as to how the states of coordination abilities development in girls aged 11, 12 and 13 significantly differ; what motor tests most substantially influence the differentiation of classes; what class the object belongs to based on the values of discriminant variables.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Physical Education Theory and Methodology}, author={Ivashchenko, O.
