The research was conducted in order to determine the differences in situational-motor abilities in the defense of men's
junior national teams at the 2013 World Handball Championship. Situational - motor abilities in the defense of the national
team of Bosnia and Herzegovina in relation to the national teams of Croatia, France, Sweden and Spain were analyzed. The
following variables were used to determine differences in defense: SKODEKUK / PR - total - average number of jumps in
defense of the whole team, SKODUK / PR1 - total - average number of jumps in defense first player of defense, SKODUK /
PR2 - total - average number of jumps in defense second defensive player, SKODUK / PR3 - total - average number of
defensive jumps third defensive player, SKODUK / PR4 - total - average number of defensive jumps fourth defensive player,
SKODUK / PR5 - total - average number of defensive jumps fifth defensive player and SKODUK / PR6 - total - average
number of jumps in the sixth defense player. To determine the partial quantitative differences of variables, which measure
the total and average number of attempts to perform an element in the area of situational - motor abilities in defense, we
used the mean difference of mean (hereinafter MD), which calculated the average values of selected variables. The average
values of variables for the assessment of situational - motor abilities in defense were also calculated. The variable SKODUK
/ PR4 - total - average number of jumps in the defense of the fourth player shows a statistically significant negative difference
in the jumps in the defense of the fourth player between the fourth player in the defense of Bosnia and Herzegovina and
the fourth player in the defense of Croatia and Sweden. In the variable SKODUK / PR6 - total - average number of jumps
in the defense of the sixth defense player, a statistically significant negative difference can be seen between the sixth player
in the defense of the national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the sixth player in the defense of Sweden.

This study has been undertaken to perform the game analysis, to determine an efficacy difference in an offence of four first
placed woman handball national teams at the Olympic games in Tokyo. One of the problems, which undergoes scientific
research, is competition between teams and an efficacy in the mentioned sport. The performance of any technical element
in the handball is impossible to perform without the adequate motoric ability, as well as the quality of the motoric ability is
impossible to perform without the rational technique. In this study, based information were obtained from first THIRD
handball national teams of France, Russia and Norway during eight matches at the Olympic games in Tokyo. The total of 12
offence’s variables were obtained from 8 matches of woman’s handball national teams and analysed: total number of shots
(sut_uk), precise - efficient number of shots (sut_pre), total number of shots from 6 meters (sut_m6_uk), precise - efficient
number of shots from 6 meters (sut_m6_pre), total number of shots from wings (sut_kril_uk), precise - efficient number of
shots from wings (sut_kr_pre), total number of shots from 9 meters (sut_m9_uk), precise - efficient number of shots from 9
meters (sut_m9_pre), total number of shots from 7 meters (sut_m7_uk), precise - efficient number of shots from 7 meters
(sut_m7_pre), total number of fast centres (brzc_uk) and total number of precise - accomplished fast centres (sut_brzc_pre).
Based on the analysis in this study, it is evident that the game of national teams was based on shots from 9 m, shots from 6
m, and on the fast performance of the fast centre. By analysed results, could be concluded, that these variables significantly
determinate the game in offence on this tournament.
