Introduction.Rhythmic gymnastics is the Olympic sport discipline. According to Zh. Shishmanova, Y.Biryuk, A. Deriugina, I.Viner, T.Nesterova, L.Karpenko high sports achievements are related to basic technical preparation of female gymnasts. Basic technical preparation in sports events of gymnastics [5,6,7,10] is the key criterion of sports preparation. However, basic technical preparation represents insufficiently solved problem in the theory and practice of rhythmic gymnastics. I am referring to substantive technical preparation, stable object throwing and catching in exercise compositions of female gymnasts. Analysis of scientific and methodical literature has shown that this issue should be solved on system-related basis, when biomechanical analysis, biomechanical indices of object throws and catches, including ball, as one of the most coordination complex events of allaround gymnastics, determine possibility of evaluating kinematic structure of motion. In this regard, responsibility of female gymnasts with respect to subtle regulation of postures and body positions both on support and support-free environment increases because preceding motions (body postures) predetermine biomechanics of subsequent ones (postures). It has been demonstrated {5,7,8,13,14,15] that preceding element of motion (or posture) performed correctly from technical point of view carries in itself the features (speedstrength, dexterous, spatial-and-temporal, amplitude, tempo-rhythmical, psychomotor) to the subsequent motion (posture). In this case exercises are performed without both unnecessary motor reorganizations and accumulation of technical faults in exercises.On that ground the method of postural motion reference-points has been used for biomechanical analysis and evaluation of ball throwing and catching, which allows to isolate and study the key elements of sports techniques in phase structure of exercise. Key element of sports techniques is the signal point (or posture) of motion determining efficient motor actions in phase structure of sports exercise.Major and rather applied studies concerning development and introduction of this topical direction of the theory and practice of gymnastics sports events were conducted by numerous specialists [2,3,4,5,7,11,13,14]. Scientific and methodical literature dealing with sports gymnastics contains the results of studying exercises on the basis of analysis of "working postures", "boundary postures", "dynamic posture" in various interpretations (Y.K.Gaverdovsky, 2007; N.G.Suchilin, 2012, etc.). As concerns rhythmic gymnastics, the above issues were touched only by V.N.Boloban and Y.V.Biryuk during studying exercises performed without object. The following key elements were singled out by the authors in exercises performed without object: body launching posture, multiplication of body posture and concluding body posture. The results of studies were published in 1978, 1979, 1988 and 1990. Object throwing and catching with application of the method of postural motion reference-points were not considered. The results of studies are presented within the frame of the topic 2.15 and 2.16 of Summary plan of scientific and research activities in the field of physical culture and sport of Ukraine for 2011-2015.Purpose of paper. To study kinematic structure of indices of the key elements of sports techniques of all throwing and catching by those engaged in rhythmic gymnastics at the stage of preliminary basic preparation.Tasks. 1. To study kinematic structure and single out the key elements of sports techniques of two basic connections of ball throwing and catching performed by gymnast O.P., international class master and young gymnasts - subjects of the stage of preliminary basic preparation.2. To analyze indices of kinematic structure of the key elements of sports techniques of ball throwing and catching of young gymnasts at the stage of preliminary basic preparation and gymnast O. …
