The article considers the current issue of the state of physical fitness of students of the basic and preparatory medical groups who played volleyball after school hours. Playing volleyball contributes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, forming an active life position, optimal development of motor and mental qualities, and improving the psycho-emotional state, which is important for students with weakened health. Recent studies indicate a steady trend towards a decrease in the motor activity of the younger generation. The statement about the cause-and-effect relationship between the level of motor activity and physical fitness is considered obvious and does not require evidence, because the qualitative characteristic of the optimal level of motor activity is the proper level of physical fitness. The goal is to determine the level of physical fitness of 13-year-old boys belonging to different medical groups who play volleyball after school. Material and methods. The following research methods were used: theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature data, anthropometric research methods, physiological research methods, pedagogical research methods (pedagogical observation, pedagogical experiment), physical fitness testing, methods of mathematical statistics. Results. Extracurricular work is an important criterion for improving physical and mental health. For the interest of students in extracurricular work, one of the important roles is sports and gaming activities. The assessment of physical fitness in 13-year-old boys belonging to the main and preparatory medical groups showed that the main group on average scored 3–4 points according to the standard tables, and the preparatory group showed the greatest increase in the motor test “long jump from a place”. Conclusions. The results show that the physical fitness of 13-year-old boys who play volleyball is at a low level, but there are positive changes during the training year. It should be noted that none of the motor tests received an excellent score.
