Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of basic motor skills to the success of the refereeing at football referees in the Sarajevo Canton. Population, a sample of respondents is derived from, are football referees in the Sarajevo Canton. There were about 90 of them, average age of 31.5 ± 1.5 who have met the criteria for obtaining a football referee license for next season at all levels of competition in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The sample of variables in this research covers the areas of basic motoring(18) and assessment of refereeing success in football game (7) variables. Regression analysis revealed that prediction set has influence on the football refereeing success of referees in the area of basic motor skills where we can see that the mutual correlation of r .63 indicates a relatively high multiple correlation, and a group of predictor variables has significant 36% of a common variance with a group of criteria variables, which explains the common variability between predictor system and the criterion variables as well. Such a correlation was significant at the level of p = .05 As the football is the action with almost the biggest complexity and that the football referees can, as direct actors in a football game, contribute very much to the final result of a football match, we can say that the selected predictor system quite well predicts the criteria that are important for football referee success. Of course, in the process of training, it is necessary to pay attention to the development of not only one dimension of motor space but also of all basic motor-skills, with the organization of motor units by taking modern training methods
