Motor competence (MC) in children and adolescents may be an essential correlate of subsequent physical activity and the development and maintenance of physical fitness (Hardy et al., 2012; Stodden et al., 2009). MC can be conceptualized as the person´s ability to perform different movements, including both gross and fine motor skills. Hand grip force is found to be positively related to other muscle groups. The hand grip force also presents an indicator for valid evaluation of the overall body strength (Bohannon, 2001). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between hand grip force and motor competence in adolescents.
