Abstract: Because body activities are dominated by the motor side, the analysis and research of motor behaviour are particularly important in the game of water polo, which has a plethora of complex aspects and manifestations of athletes in training activities and competitive activities. The lack of a national approach for this discipline, water polo, drives this research. Teachers, coaches, and experts in the area do not prepare this crucial part of athlete training early on, which can make a difference between win and defeat, [or entry into the national team]. Our study's goal is to examine the approach for developing motor skills, in general, and coordination abilities for water polo. The research methodology was based on the documentary analysis and the synthesis of the specialized literature in order to clarify some essential aspects in the field. The main finding of our research was to identify the completeness of the term coordination capacity. Thus, the term coordinative capacity, compared to skill, would better reflect the practical realities through the complexity of this capacity, as well as the multitude of specific components of it, avoiding the confusion that can be created by using the old term “skill.
