<jats:p>Physical fitness and psychomotor performance can play a crucial role in decision-making ability, reaction time, and movement time among female handball players at different age levels. Our study aimed to compare the physical fitness performance and psychomotor abilities among trained young female handball players from different age groups (U14 vs. U16). The study group included 61 female handball players (U14 = 26; 13.2±0.8) and U16 = 35; 15.1±0.8). The Mann–Whitney U test was conducted to compare the performance of physical fitness and psychomotor abilities between groups (U14 and U16). Afterward, the Pearson product-moment correlation was used to explore the relationship between physical fitness and psychomotor abilities performance among all participants. Results showed that zig-zag with the ball (s) had a significant correlation with movement time (ms) in the Spatial Attention Test (SPANT) (r = 0.30). The plate tapping test (s) emerged as a strong indicator of psychomotor speed (ms), showing significant correlations with a range of variables, including Simple Reaction Time Test (SIRT) movement time (r = 0.48), Choice Reaction Time Test (CHORT) movement time (r = 0.57), Hand–Eye Coordination Test (HECOR) reaction time (r = –0.48), HECOR movement time (r = 0.69), SPANT reaction time (r = 0.63), and SPANT movement time (r = 0.52). These findings have implications for the development of trained young female handball players. Training programs may benefit from age-specific emphasis, focusing more on fundamental coordination and reaction-based exercises in younger athletes and progressively incorporating cognitively demanding drills for older adolescents.</jats:p>
