and 12 years old inclusive. The methods of observation and of mathematical statistics were used, the levels of
development of physical abilities and moral-volitional qualities of young gymnasts were estimated. Results:

characteristics are inextricably linked, both with the development of physical qualities, and with the success of
sports-competitive activities. By the Pearson correlation coefficient a quite significant association was found
