The purpose of this study was to develop the method of distinction for sports gifted children, which evaluated as well as cognitive capability and physical fitness. For the validation verification of developed method, we measured physique, physical fitness and developed cognitive agility method for 369 children from 2nd grade to 6th grade. Results were followed as below: The frequency of success of sports gifted group was higher than normal group(p<.05). Total time for cognitive agility of gifted child's group in both sex were shorter than normal group(p<.05). There were no significant correlation between physique and cognitive agility time. 50m run and side step test had correlation with cognitive agility time in boys and girls(p<.05). In spatial skills, only higher tendency in sports gifted group showed. Cognitive agility had positive correlation with space perception in both boys and girls of upper grades. With theses results, we concluded that developed cognitive agility test might be synthetic evaluated method for cognitive agility as qualitative capacity for boys and girls in elementary school.

The purpose of this study was to verify the validity of the developed evaluation method for competition intelligence of sport talented children of of Kim et al.(2015). For this purpose, total 3 times of observation by sports leaders were accomplished for evaluation of competition intelligence. After finishing final observation, the correlation between the sub-factors(practice intelligence, learning intelligence, and training intelligence) and gifted students' physical fitness and KOSTASS were examined. First, as the reliability, the correlations between leaders' observation results were significantly higher than 0.8 in all sub-factors. Second, all sub-factors of competition intelligence showed significant positive correlation with in standing jump, 50m dash and side step test improvement(p<.05). Third, all sub-factors showed no significant correlation with KOSTASS(p>.05). These results showed that the evaluation tool by Kim et al.(2015) didn't not fully reflect the improvement level of basic physical fitness factors of the gifted students. However, the results of correlation between physical fitness factors requiring technical learning process showed that the gymnastic gauging tools included learning process and task acquisition level.
