As the primary aim of the paper was to evaluate the possible relationships between selected anthropometric parameters and motor abilities, it is deemed pertinent that the intra-observer reliability of these measures should have been reported. Without quantification of intra-observer measurement error the acceptability of these variables for subsequent analyses in the main study is unknown.
