description Background and purpose of the study. Coordination abilities are a key element in the successful execution of technical basketball skills. In this context, developing appropriate comprehensive training programs that do not harm health is a critically important task. The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of aerobics training on the coordination abilities of basketball players at the initial training stage. Materials and methods. The study involved 11-year-old basketball players (n=30). The tests used included: movement in a defensive stance; dribbling (with direction changes and cone dribbling); static balance (standing on one leg); and passing the ball to a target. The Student's t-test was used to compare the results of different training methods. Results. Significant improvements were observed in all tests within the experimental group: the time for movement in a defensive stance decreased from 15.18±0.4 to 12.86±0.40 seconds (p<0.001); the time for dribbling decreased from 10.78±0.3 to 8.56±0.31 seconds (p<0.001); the time for static balance increased from 11.14±0.2 to 18.78±0.45 seconds (p<0.001); and the number of hits when passing the ball to a target increased from 5.21±0.61 to 7.81±0.75 times (p<0.01). In the control group, no statistically significant changes were found. However, the number of hits when passing the ball to a target increased from 4.8±0.54 to 5.8±0.58 times (p>0.05). Conclusions. Aerobics training significantly improves the coordination abilities of young 11-year-old basketball players without compromising their health. The results of the study demonstrated the effectiveness of aerobic exercises in developing the skills necessary for the successful execution of technical basketball maneuvers. The absence of significant changes in the control group confirms the advantages of incorporating comprehensive training programs that include aerobics.
