ABSTRACT
Purpose:
The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of coordination motor abilities on the sports skill level in elite male badminton players.

Methods:
The study group consisted of 12 male players from the Polish national badminton team. the scope of the research included measurement of basic anthropometric features and selected coordination motor abilities. Using the spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, statistically significant cause and effect relations were identified between the sports skill level and the analysed coordination abilities. Multiple determination coefficients were computed to analyse the impact of individual coordination abilities on the sports skill level.

Results:
The multiple determination coefficients showed that the sports skill level of the badminton players was most strongly determined by spatial orientation (ca. 42%), followed by frequency of movements (28%) and kinaesthetic differentiation (ca. 17%).

Conclusions:
It seems that these coordination abilities should be taken into careful consideration in technical and tactical training of badminton players since they largely determine their level of achievement.
