Résumé: The allure of conducting scientific research focused on developing the cognitive processes of athletes stems from the unique characteristic of these studies to investigate the dynamic nature of humans as they engage in physical and sporting activities. This study aims to highlight the significance of working memory and motor coordination in the field of physical education and sports sciences. Employing a descriptive approach aligned with the study's nature, we establish the validity of the proposed hypothesis, which posits that working memory and motor coordination play a crucial role in athletic performance, particularly within the realm of STAPS (Sciences and Techniques of Applied Physical Activities and Sports)
