THE EFFECT OF GENDER ON CHILDREN’S RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS SKILLS
The main aim of current research was to determine gender differences in specific rhythmic gymnastics rope skills in 6 year old children. Seventy preschool children participated (30 girls and 40 boys). Overall, 5 rope skills tests were constructed: rope swings, front scale rotation, jumping through the rope, throwing and catching and rope winding. Statistically significant difference occurred only in 3 out of 5 tests: Front scale Rotation, Jumping through the Rope and Rope Winding. When Front scale Rotation element is concerned, it is probable that severe lack in flexibility of boys resulted in lower scores. Girls turned out to have significantly better results in Jumping through the Rope test. The most of the differences between the genders probably occurred because of the different type of activities that boys and girls practice in their free time, gender-based activities.
