Abstract
On a sample of 54 male students (age 19 – 21) of sport studies at the Teachers’ Faculty in Mostar, the multiple regression analysis – Stepwise method, determined the predictive general and partial contribution of some morphological and motor variables in achieving successful results in the sprint and jump athletic disciplines (60m running, 60m running with hurdles and triple jump) being discussed. Cross-correlation analysis was used in order to find out relations between predictor morphological and motor variables and criteria variables. The results of this research proved that these speed and jump abilities are the most important factor in achieving efficient results in all sprint and jump athletic disciplines, and that a successful result in these athletic disciplines is the expression of a high synergy between motor abilities and movement coordination
