In this paper, the influence of anthropometric characteristics and speed on long jump performance is investigated. The aim of the paper was to prove the connection between anthropometric characteristics and speed as a predictor system in the efficiency of long jump performance as a criterion system. The research was conducted on a sample of 110 male testers aged 13 years ± 6 months, students of the "Naim Frashëri" elementary school - Tetovo. A total of 10 variables were used in the research, of which: 6 variables were for the assessment of anthropometric characteristics, 3 variables for the assessment of speed and 1 variable for the assessment of situational motor skills. By verifying the individual impact of anthropometric characteristics and speed on long jump efficiency, the interpreted results lead to the conclusion that: the variables of anthropometric characteristics and speed used as predictor variables have a significant statistical impact on the criterion variable long jump (SMLJ). It is worth noting that from the entire predictor system, the greatest individual impact on the long jump criterion variable (SMLJ) has the following variables: body mass (ABM), with a standardized beta coefficient value of 2.435 and a confidence level of 0.041, the body mass index (BMI), with a negative value of the standardized beta coefficient -2.083 and a confidence level of 0.049, and the variables sprinting in the 200 meters (RU200m), with a negative value of the standardized beta coefficient -.321 and a confidence level of 0.050.
