The aim of the research was to design specific kinetic sports and to know their effect on some basic complex kinetic skills, and also to design four complex skill tests to measure these variables. The researcher used the experimental design of the one group, as the sample of the research was (18) children (male and female) from the children of kindergarten of (Aween) in the centre of the Province of Erbil, as well as taking into account several procedures such as pilot experiments, and the scientific foundations of tests. After conducting the pretests, the proposed specific kinetic sports were applied to the research group within educational units (18) units in a period of (6) weeks, three units per week, and (30) minutes for the educational unit, then the post-tests were conducted. The findings were treated by using the appropriate statistical methods. The researchers concluded that the proposed sports played an active role in the development of the targeted skills (running and kicking, running and throwing, snapping and throwing, running and jumping) among children in different degrees, as well as the effectiveness of the designed tests in giving the results and in scientific degrees characterized by validity, reliability, and objectivity. They recommended that those who are responsible for teaching the children the complex skills should focus first on the process of motor connection then the improvement of speed and accuracy of performance, as well as the adoption of the designed tests to measure these variables.
