Introduction. The specificity of team sports, which include hockey, makes high demands on the individual characteristics of athletes. It can be argued that the level of involvement in hockey is the basis for the successful development of the sports training program for the sport of hockey.
The federal standard of sports training for the sport of hockey defines the minimum requirements for enrolling children aged 8 to undergo sports training at the initial stage in sports organizations [8]. Program standards evaluated in exact units of measurement (meters and seconds) do not reflect and do not take into account such an equally important element as introducing a child to sports activities, expressed by him in the form of interest in playing hockey, manifestation of independence, emotional and volitional qualities, self-organization, knowledge about hockey, motivation for their sports development.
Despite a significant contribution to the development of the theory of physical education for children aged 5-7 years, the studies performed do not fully solve the problem of involving children of senior preschool age in sports activities, its theoretical and methodological foundations, methodological and pedagogical justification for the possibility of involvement.
Senior preschool age is significant for the development of physical qualities, satisfaction of motor needs, attraction to sports activities. Currently, many pedagogical studies consider the problem of involving preschool children in sports activities in the context of forming interest in sports activities, developing motivation in children 5-7 years old by means of playing activities, generating interest in various sports, preparing children for sports, sports education, development of motor creativity [12].
The partial absence of age standards for involvement in sports activities for children aged 5-7 does not

allow to fully carry out the procedure of complex control and selection when enrolling in organizations that provide sports training at the initial stage.
Objective of the study was to determine the level of involvement of children aged 5-7 years in hockey in the context of its consideration as a factor determining success in further sports activities.
Methods and structure of the study. To determine the level of involvement in sports activities and hockey, in particular, diagnostic tools were substantiated in accordance with the criteria and indicators we have identified (Table 1).
In our opinion, the presented diagnostic tools in Table 2 can be considered the most suitable for studying the level of involvement of children aged 5-7 years in hockey (sports activities).
The work was carried out among young hockey players aged 5-7 years (n=120), involved in the sports school of the Olympic reserve "Spartakovets" in order to determine the level of involvement for three years (2014-2016).
Results of the study and their discussion. According to the results of the study, we determined the
levels of involvement of children aged 5-7 years in hockey: formal, sufficient and active, which are complex in nature, and the inclusion criteria are equivalent. The results of the study are presented in table 3.
The results obtained were used by us as additional ones when conducting the selection procedure for the stage of initial sports training, all other things being equal, for the test subjects to fulfill the control standards, and also played a special role in the design and monitoring of the individual trajectory of young hockey players' sports training from 2016 to 2022 -a personal way of realizing personal potential every child. The individual trajectory was accompanied by a personal map, which included: personal result and achievements; fulfillment of milestone requirements for general, special and technical-tactical training and reflected their success in sports activities. Indicators of mastering the sports training program by children are presented in Table 4.
As can be seen from the table above, children who have an active level of involvement in hockey (sports
