An analysis of scientific and methodological literature, along with practical research, demonstrates that vestibular stability plays a crucial role in developing the technical and tactical skills of athletes. The ability to maintain balance in high-intensity football gameplay enhances the effectiveness of motor actions such as shooting, passing, dribbling, and maneuvering around opponents.</p> <p>The study reveals that the age-specific characteristics of sensitive periods for coordination ability development require a specialized approach to training. Despite a considerable number of studies on football players' coordination training, the influence of vestibular gymnastics on the coordination abilities of 15–16-year-old athletes remains insufficiently explored. This highlights the need for further investigation into specialized methodologies aimed at improving vestibular stability and substantiating their effectiveness in the training process.</p> Aydos Yerimbetovich Shilmanov Copyright (c) 2025 Aydos Yerimbetovich Shilmanov https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/843 Tue, 25 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000 ANALYSIS OF SPECIALISED TOOLS FOR ENHANCING THE ACCURACY OF TECHNICAL SKILLS IN FOOTBALL https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/817 <p>The article examines methods for enhancing the target accuracy of technical actions in football players, with a particular focus on passing and shooting.

Approaches like Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Task-Based Learning (TBL), and Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) have proven to be valuable in this context. These methods contribute to improving students' grammar proficiency by promoting meaningful communication, contextualized learning, and interactive instruction. However, further investigation is needed to account for factors such as learners’ proficiency levels, cultural backgrounds, and the integration of diverse approaches for well-rounded language development. Ongoing research and innovation in teaching practices are crucial to addressing the evolving needs of EFL learners.</p> Diana Komilovna Ruzmetova Copyright (c) 2025 Diana Komilovna Ruzmetova https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/824 Tue, 25 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000 DEVELOPMENT OF MICROCYCLE TRAINING PLANS IN TRACK AND FIELD CLUBS OF HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/841 <p>This article discusses the planning and organization of microcycle training sessions for students in track and field clubs.

Pragmatics, which explores how context shapes meaning in dialogue, is central to understanding how Twilight builds tension, ambiguity, and emotional depth. By analyzing key conversations, this study highlights the use of implicature in Edward and Bella’s interactions, where unspoken meanings convey their complex relationship; politeness strategies in the Cullen family’s dialogue, which maintain harmony despite their supernatural nature; and speech acts like threats, which heighten the novel’s suspense. These pragmatic techniques reinforce Twilight’s Gothic themes of forbidden love, danger, and the unknown. The findings demonstrate how pragmatic communication drives the narrative and enhances its atmospheric tension, offering insights into the interplay between language and genre. This study bridges linguistic and literary analysis, showcasing how modern Gothic texts like Twilight use pragmatics to innovate within the genre while staying true to its traditional elements.</p> Utaganova Roza Copyright (c) 2025 Utaganova Roza https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/848 Tue, 25 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000 THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS OF TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL TRAINING IN GRECO-ROMAN WRESTLING https://mentaljournal-jspu.uz/index.php/mesmj/article/view/822 <p>The analysis of the experiences of specialists in Greco-Roman wrestling training and scientific-methodological literature has revealed a lack of scientifically substantiated research aimed at improving the technical and tactical skills of highly qualified wrestlers in accordance with modern requirements.
