Motor Testing at Camp Vanja Grbić

Motor testing is one of the most important activities within the Camp Vanja Grbic, because they provide a clear and objective insight into the physical abilities of each participant. These tests are not a competition, but a tool that allows coaches to understand the current state of the child, recognize their potential, and adapt the training to individual needs.

In the camp named Vanja Grbić, special emphasis is placed on the proper development of children, without forcing, with maximum safety and professional guidance.

What are motor tests?

Motor testing is a set of standardized exercises and tasks that assess the basic physical and functional abilities of children and young athletes. The aim of the test is to obtain in a simple but accurate way a picture of:

  • Speed and explosiveness.

  • strength and endurance

  • Coordination and agility.

  • Equilibrium and stability

  • Mobility and flexibility

The test results serve as a starting point for further work in the camp.

What does testing look like at Camp Vanja Grbić?

Motor testing is carried out in controlled conditions, under the supervision of a professional coaching team and sports pedagogues. The activities are adapted to the age of the children and are carried out through dynamic and motivating tasks, without pressure and stress.

Tests may include:

  • Short sprint tests (speed assessment)

  • Jumping from a place (explosive power)

  • Polygons with changes of direction (agility and coordination)

  • Stability and Movement Control Tests

  • Basic functional movements that indicate the correctness of the performance

All activities are designed so that children experience testing as an interesting challenge, not as an obligation.

Why are motor tests important?

Motor testing plays a multifaceted role in the development of young athletes.

  • Individual approach – every child is different, and testing helps coaches adapt the work to each participant

  • Progress tracking – you can clearly see how motor skills develop during your stay at the camp

  • Injury prevention – by noticing weaknesses or imbalances, it is possible to react in time

  • Development of proper movement patterns – the focus is not only on the result, but on the quality of movement

At Camp Vanja Grbić, we believe that healthy and gradual development is more important than early results.

Motor testing as the basis of quality training

The test results are used as a basis for planning training during the camp. In this way, each participant gets the opportunity to work on improving their weaknesses, but also to further develop what they are already good at.


This approach allows:

  • Safer training

  • A Better Execution Technique

  • Greater self-confidence in children.

  • Long-term and sustainable sports development

Expertise, safety and positive experience

Motor testing in Camp Vanja Grbić is carried out with maximum attention to children. The emphasis is on proper performance, encouragement and a positive atmosphere. Every child receives equal attention, without comparison to others.

The goal is not selection, but understanding – so that every child comes out of the camp more motivated, more confident in themselves and with better foundations for further sports development.

JOINT STATEMENT

Regarding the ARTIN & GRBIĆ International Volleyball Camp

This statement is issued by Andra Artin Sports Association and Vladimir Grbić.

Following a series of discussions regarding the proposed organization of the ARTIN & GRBIĆ International Volleyball Camp, scheduled to take place in Băile Herculane, Romania, from 8 August 2026 to 22 August 2026, the parties have mutually agreed that the Romanian organizing team, together with Ugljesa Segrt, will continue the project independently under a new name.

During the preparation of the volleyball camp, the parties reviewed various aspects of the planned collaboration, including the use of the Vladimir Grbić methodology, certain operational standards, branding elements, and promotional approaches related to the project. However, the parties were unable to fully align the conditions necessary for the implementation of the project in the form originally envisaged.

In light of these circumstances, the parties have mutually agreed not to proceed with the proposed collaboration and confirm that no final agreement governing the implementation of the project was concluded. Consequently, Vladimir Grbić will have no role in the organization, promotion, implementation, management, or coordination of the camp, and all future activities relating to the project will be managed exclusively by the Romanian organizing team together with Ugljesa Segrt.

We also wish to clarify that the name, image, personal brand, know-how, and any other intellectual property rights belonging to Vladimir Grbić will not be used in connection with the project. Any person who chooses to use such rights in relation to this project will do so at their own responsibility, and the Association expressly dissociates itself from any such actions.

The parties emphasize that this decision has been reached amicably, in good faith, and with particular consideration for the interests and well-being of the children, parents, coaches, and all other members of the volleyball community involved.

The Romanian organizing team will communicate directly with participants and parents regarding all future arrangements relating to the camp and will provide relevant updates in due course.

We wish each other success in our future endeavors and remain committed to supporting the development of young volleyball players and the continued promotion of volleyball.

Yours sincerely,
Andra-Maria Artin
Vladimir Grbić
