The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a structured educational program in enhancing sensory perception, motor coordination, and throwing accuracy in adolescent handball players. The researcher adopted an experimental methodology involving 16 participants, who were equally assigned to two groups: an experimental group and a control group, both comprising young athletes from Maysan Club. An exploratory pilot study was initially conducted using suitable research tools and measurement instruments. This was followed by a pre-intervention assessment, after which the experimental group engaged in a learning intervention consisting of three training sessions per week over a period of eight weeks. Upon completion of the program, a post-intervention test was administered. The collected data were analyzed statistically and interpreted in detail. The study's findings indicated that the educational program significantly improved sensory perception, motor coordination, and shooting accuracy in handball among participants in the experimental group. These enhancements contributed to better performance and a reduction in technical errors. Based on these outcomes, the researcher recommended incorporating a variety of exercises into the training curriculum to support the development of cognitive and motor skills among young athletes in the Maysan Club handball team.
