Selecting children for appropriate sport is the most demanding and the most responsible task for sport experts and kinesiology in general. Sport activities have significant differences regarding structural and substance features. Different sports are determined by authentic kinesiological structures and specific anthropological characteristics of an individual (Chapman, 2008; Abernethy, 2005). Success of an individual in particular sport activity is predominantly determined by the compatibility of his/her anthropological characteristics with the anthropologic model of top athletes in that sport (Morrow & James, 2005). Extensive research that has been done in order to test, analyze and compare athletes of various sports (MacDougall et al, 1991; Stergiou, 2004) brings precious information and knowledge that can be used for the sport talents identification, also.
