The article presents the results of comparing the effectiveness of two training programs aimed at developing anticipation abilities in young tennis players aged 11-12 years. The greatest positive effect was observed in the experimental group of athletes who followed the program that included perceptual-motor learning with integrated perceptual, cognitive, and motor tasks throughout the 4 weeks of the experiment. The program that included preliminary perceptual-cognitive training without a motor aspect for 2 weeks followed by perceptual-cognitive and perceptual-motor components in the subsequent 2 weeks proved to be less effective.
