SUMMARY
The main goal of the research is to determine the effects of the three-month program on swimming speed of the dolphin technique. The swimmer in the water is in an unstable position, without firm support, which contributes to the characteristic phenomenon of weight loss, since the weight of the body is neutralized by the thrust of the water. This neutral position allows the swimmer to move with the locomotor apparatus at different intensities, without major problems and static stresses, which contributes to the harmonious development of the body (especially significant at a younger age). The sample of respondents consisted of the Association of Sports and Health “Sportivo” Sarajevo, aged 10-12 years, male. The sample of respondents for this research was 44 swimmers, clinically and psychologically healthy and without significant morphological and locomotor impairments. The research was conducted at the regular training sessions of the Sports and Health Association “Sportivo” Sarajevo at the Otoka Olympic Pool, Sarajevo. Sample of variables The selection of variables for this research was made on the basis of their measurement characteristics: validity, reliability, sensitivity, economy and adaptability and appropriateness to the age of the respondents. To evaluate the parameters of the speed of swimming with the dolphin technique: Speed of swimming at 25m with the dolphin technique - BPDT25, Speed of swimming at 50m with the dolphin technique - BPDT50 and Speed of swimming at 100m with the dolphin technique - BPDT100. In order to have a wider application, it is necessary to make additional corrections and improvements. Which means for some more significant changes in the applied variables, the content of the applied program should be additionally programmed to cause even more qualitative changes in the variables.
