| Summary: | . Among factors that positively underlie physical education process, provide stimuli during
exercise sessions, increase interest, effectiveness and esthetic character are various nontraditional games
as well as nontraditional exercise equipment. Nontraditional sports games have effect on physical fitness
and motor performance, promote health, social and moral development of children. We aimed to provide
further evidence on nontraditional sports games, their rules, basic methods, forms and means used in
teaching school physical education to prepubertal children. These means were used to develop
coordination abilities of general population. The statistical significance of changes was determined using
paired samples t-test for the following abilities: rhythmical abilities, reaction abilities, balance abilities,
kinesthetic-differentiation ability (spatial, strength), frequency ability, coupling ability and
reorganization ability. The use of nontraditional movement games was found to have effect on behavior
change of children with ADHD. To determine changes in behavior, Vanderbilt rating scale was used.
Statistically significant improvements determined by Wilcoxon test was found for the following
subscales: following instructions/rules, assignment completion and organizational skills.
