• Description:
  Introduction: The aim of the study was to assess the physical fitness of young players from the club "MKS Ogniwo Sopot" after a year of systematic training and to evaluate the components of physical fitness supporting the motor performance of young rugby players. Overall balance, responsiveness, coordination, running speed and agility, and endurance were assessed to align with selected EUROFIT tests. Results: Thirteen players took part in the study. Physical fitness was tested by using five EUROFIT tests. Statistically significant differences were found in the results of the following tests: Plate Tapping test, Standing Long Jump test, 10 x 5 m Shuttle test, Beep test. The only test with a statistically insignificant difference was the Flamingo Balance test. Conclusion: Analyzing the presented research results, it can be concluded that the athletes obtained higher results than in the previous year, indicating the development of physical fitness components that support the motor achievements their. Physical fitness depends on these components, so we can conclude that an annual period of systematic training has had a positive effect on the physical fitness of young athletes.
