Purpose: to test the methodic of students’ motor rhythm training at physical culture lessons based on application of football means. Material: in the research full time 1st year students of main health group (n=40) participated. After short warming up (10-15 minutes) they fulfilled exercises for rhythm feeling during 15 minutes at every lesson. Assessment of rhythm feeling was carried out with the help of test “Ball pulling by foot”. Shuttle run 3x10 m was used for assessment of general coordination level. Besides, complex test for football player’s technical fitness (juggling, dribbling, dribbling around stands and kicking goal) was used. Results: we found that it is necessary to selectively train football player’s ability for motor rhythm. It also concerns training of students’ coordination. We presented new opportunities of application of methodic of students’ motor rhythm’s development. These opportunities were realized at physical culture lessons, based on football means. Conclusions: when mastering and practicing new and complex exercises for coordination we used the method of standard-repeated exercise. The method of variable exercise was used, when it was necessary to change the mean of movements’ fulfillment. Game and competition methods were used only, when the trained motor action became automatic.
