This paper aims the development of approaches to improvement of coordination abilities of students with muscular skeletal apparatus disorders under influence of system of exercises and games with ball. In the research students with disorders of muscular skeletal apparatus participated. The research was being carried out during 1.5 years (3 academic semesters). The students had disability of light and average degree. All they were under doctor's supervision and did not have counter indications to physical education. Coordination abilities were tested by attempts to get in target (vertical and horizontal) by ball and by movements' differentiation by power and space characteristics. The authors provided approaches to improvement of students' physical fitness and to acquiring new motor skills and abilities, required for adaptation to everyday life. Assessment of space orientation showed underestimation of bio-kinematic links' correlation. It was found that the most effective motor functioning rehabilitation mean was worked out by us system of exercises and games with ball, the weight of which changed depending on the tasks to be solved.
