In the sample of pupils ( N = 124), age 7 to 8, by a factor (component) analysis, there was analysed the latent structure of motoric abilities and the relation between its latent dimensions. The algorithm of the model of multi-variant factor (component) analysis, on the basis of 17 motoric measuring instruments, transformed main components into a five-di- mensional model of motoric factors defined as: a) speed of alternative movements and static one b) repetitive strength c)explosive strength d) flexibility e) movement coordi- nation. There were also set statistically important linear - non-zero - correlations bet- ween the following latent dimensions: a) speed of alternative movements and the static strength and the repetitive strength b) speed of alternative movements and flexibility c) speed of alternative movements and coordination of movements d) explosive strength and coordination of movements. Extracted latent hierarchic motoric structure and obtained significant connecti- ons between motoric factors are a relevant generator for the prediction and development of motoric abilities as well as for the planning of training operators in class work of physical education
