Experts of different profession have increasingly noticed physical performance deficits and motorial disorders in school children. Reviews have shown that today the motorial capability of children and adolescents is about 10 % lower than it was 25 years ago.

What are the causes? Organized sports, so it seems, do not compensate for the deficit in everyday motoricity. Today an elementary school child moves one hour per day on the average and adolescents prefer leisure time activities not involving physical exercises.What possibilities exist to evaluate motor competences and to successfully intervene?  Trying to answer these questions, the author elucidates the dimensionality of motorial competences. Causes of the change in motor capability are identified and diagnostic means of determining motor competences presented. The Robert Koch Institute determines the motoricity of children and adolescents within the frame-work of a national health survey. The author presents two examples of how to intervene. Finally, the essential points and perspectives are listed.
