Tennis is a specific motor activity, determined by the high level of requirements to the level of athlete’s mental qualities, the necessity of achievement of motor skills while performing complicated technical-tactical actions.
The purpose of the present research was to make a comparative analysis of development of mental qualities in Hanoi and Moscow children in the age of 8-9 engaged in the groups of overall physical training.
The computer diagnostics of the level of development of mental qualities served the technique of the research.
The distribution of indices of statistically authentic differences in all age groups of Vietnamese and Russian children testifies to the unsteady change of the level of development of mental qualities. Practically in all cases the age of 10 is key, when all indices essentially improve. Most of all it refers to the indices of simple mental and antedating reactions, characterizing not only the features of neurodynamics, but some abilities of the future tennis-player. However, another rule is observed: Russian children have higher psychomotor indices compared to the Vietnamese, already in the age of 8. It can be explained by the fact that children from Moscow have the experience of pre-sport activity: all of them used to exercises in the groups of overall physical training. Furthermore, Russian children are more socially relaxed, they are mobilized rather than embarrassed by the situation at the examination, representing a psychological test. Thus they had higher results in the test of the rate of choice reaction, but their advantage over Vietnamese children fails to achieve the statistically authentic level.
