Abstract
Motor coordination in basketball is the ability to perform movements in a controlled and effective manner, integrating different parts of the body in specific motor actions of the game. The objective of this research work was to analyze the post-intervention motor coordination of a program of offensive technical fundamentals exercises in the discipline of basketball. The study corresponds to a mixed qualitative and quantitative approach, whose research modality was applied through an analytical-descriptive design. The study sample consisted of 50 schoolchildren aged 9 and 10 years, the 3JS test was applied as an instrument, which allowed an analysis of motor coordination in two dimensions: locomotor coordination and object control coordination, an intervention program was carried out, which lasted six months of applications, that is, a longitudinal cut with the application of a pre-test and a post-test. The analysis of the results reveals a significant level in motor coordination in all dimensions of motor coordination for the male gender, however, in the female gender more significant values were obtained after the application of the intervention program.
