Each technical action (strike, defense, feint etc.) in modern combat sports is designed to attain specific goals. Boxing sport with its extreme stressors and fast versatile tactics requires certain anticipation and the ability to respond by the most efficient stereotyped actions. It should be mentioned that boxing coaches and instructors often underestimate the importance of good cognitive qualities and fail to equip the trainees with sound tactical skills using the individual reflection and analyses encouraging elements. The cognitive qualities activation issues are presently given a high priority by the sport communities. The study analyzes benefits of the cognitive qualities activating boxing tactics mastering model tested on a sample of the St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering students. Cognitive qualities are interpreted as the integrative personality characteristic including a knowledgebase and skills developed by focused cognitive efforts with the tactical solutions analyzing and finding abilities indispensable for success. We believe that the well-developed tactical thinking skills facilitate progress in academic studies. The new model was designed based on our studies of the construction university students’ cognitive qualities improvement potential in the boxing tactics (particularly counterattacks) mastering trainings.  The model was tested on two equivalent groups of the beginner (2-year) academic boxers of the Civil Engineering Department. We found the new cognitive qualities mobilizing boxing tactics mastering model beneficial for the self-reliant cognitive abilities training in students.

Keywords: cognitive qualities, construction university student, tactics, counterattack, boxing.
