Abstract     The purpose of this experiment in which 335 7th grade pupils from different places in Slovenia participated, was to establish the effectiveness of experimental exercise programme on the changes of motor abilities and morphological characteristics during summer holidays. The subjects were devided into two groups: the control group (KS), and the experimental group (ES). The latter was given a programme of exercise according to which the members would voluntarily pracise during summer holidays. The improvement in motor abilities and morphological characteristics was verified by means of eleven measuring procedures used in the sports educational chart. In September both groups answered a questionnaire on their activity between the two measurements. The used statistical methods have shovn that with the experimental group the programme had positive effects on the mentioned variables which, to a smaller extent holds also for the control group. The variety of sports activities chosen by the experimental group was larger, the time alloted to these activities longer. But this group also had bad habits than the contr* group (TV, computer, night rest...). On the basis of the result obtained it can be concluded that the proposed programme was accepted and positively affected motor and morphological status of the population mentioned.
