The study aim was to determine the effectiveness of vibration training on changes in strength in individuals of both sexes. Vibration training is a modern form of training that is becoming more and more widespread and frequent, and involves the application of vibrational stimulations of a certain form to cause functional and structural changes. It is used during strength training, where it can act in isolation on individual muscle regions or as whole body vibrational training. These observations provide an opportunity to apply a new method in training to improve the training itself and thus the performance of the athletes. The impact of this training on motor skills, and even strength, as one of the most studied areas, has not been extensively researched. This paper analyzes 14 studies on the effects of vibrational training on the change in power, and the papers are systematically analyzed. A review of research conducted in the field of this training shows that the effects of such training methods show in both professional and recreational athletes. In most of the studies analyzed, training has shown significant changes in power as well as in other motor skills.

The Covid-19 virus pandemic has brought many problems, both in the functioning of everyday life and in various spheres of human health. Sport has always been considered a synonym for a healthy physical and mental state of people. The emergence of the phenomenon of e-sports has brought agility to a new market that cannot be defined by physical culture. The research will explain and prove the negative effects on children’s health based on a survey whose results prove that most of the surveyed children engage in e-sports activities during a pandemic, rather than physical exercise, as well as other relevant research. Considering that sport in general and e-sport as a newly formed occupation, mostly children, have no other than terminological similarities, the research topic is subject to critical evaluation.

In order to determine the difference in morphological characteristics, a survey was conducted on a sample of 120 fourth-grade elementary schoolgirls from different socio-economic backgrounds in Montenegro. The total sample of respondentswas divided into two sub-samples. One sub-group consisted of 60 schoolgirls from urban and the other 60 schoolgirls of the same age from rural environment. A sample of measuring instruments consisted of 12 measures (body height, arm length, leg length, shoulder width, elbow diameter, knee diameter, body mass, upper arm circumference, lower leg circumference, skin fold of the back, skin fold of the upper arm and skin fold of the abdomen). In the process of statistical data processing, descriptiveand canonical discriminatory analysis were applied in order to identify possible differences between sub-databases. The obtained research data generally indicate the existence of statistically significant differences between sub-samples. This difference is evident in indicators of longitudinal and transversal dimensionality of the skeleton, and in contrast, the difference was not evident in indicators of volume and body weight and subcutaneous fat tissue. Girls from the urban environment were taller and had more pronounced measures in the upper and lower extremities and girls from rural areas had more pronounced measures of knee joint diameter than their peers from urban life.

The system of financing sports clubs in the Republic of Croatia is the closest to a mixed model in which the main sources of financing are: budget funds and the economy. It is an indisputable fact that professional sports clubs in the Republic of Croatia from the beginning of the 1990s until today have actually relied mainly on city administrations and majority state-owned companies in terms of funding. In the total revenue structure of all major sports clubs in Croatia, all other revenues including the private sector, TV rights, ticket revenues, revenues from own marketing, were extremely small and in fact such an inadequate revenue structure of almost all clubs created “dependent clubs” that have become existentially addicted to public money in the case of non-commercial sports, or in the case of football addicted to UEFA revenues or player transfers which in turn have great variability. The paper examines and proves that the greatest impact on reducing financial risk in business have their own revenues generated by sports teams in Croatia. All the funds they receive from the budget or from sponsors from the economy are not enough to reduce the risk and the club to operate without difficulty.

Continuing education of adults is becoming a condition for the survival and development of modern states. With development of science and technology, formal education, regardless of the level of the development achieved, becomes insufficient to follow modern social and technological trend. In this context, there is a need to acquire new knowledge that woud involve all participators in civil life on the path to successful accomplishment of their life missions. Acquiring and use of knowledge in adulthood improves human relations, raises economic growth, encourages employment, raises the quality of the environment, protects and promotes health, raises personal self-confidence, etc. These are the basic reason why modern democratic societies have agreed on the key goals and principles of adult education, as well as the role of education in individual and social development. Lifelong learning must be the guiding principle of education, as well as the foundation for the development of the individuals, social connections and employment. Adult education includes retraing, additional training, vocational training and other activities related to lifelong learning. Access to this education is not limited regardless of age. The realization of successful education requires the participation and responsibility of all partners: adults involved in education, parents, teachers, employers, unions, public institutions, charities and others. This work explores the goals and principles of the development of adult education, and the possibilities of its improvement in the Republic of Srpska as well as the limitations in the realization of the set educational goals. The work aims to point out the gap between offer and needs in labor market, on which future capacities in adult educatain should be based.

The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics and efficiency of service in the best young table tennis players, as well as the existence of differences in service between young players of different ages. The research sample consisted of 18 matches (10 juniors, 8 cadets) at international tournaments in 2018 (ETTU Youth Top 10 in Portugal, European Youth Championship in Romania). The results of the analysis of the Hi-square independence test showed the existence of a statistically significant difference in the number of performed Forhand (FH) and Backhand (BH) short services in table tennis players. By 4.3%, more BH short services were recorded among juniors, while cadets significantly more used FH short services (3.5%) compared to older teammates. The research also proved the existence of a statistically significant difference in certain indicators of service efficiency. By 6.9%, Service without advantage is significantly higher among female cadets, and Service with acquired advantage is 5.9% higher among juniors. There is a difference in other indicators of service efficiency, but it is not statistically significant. Out of a total of 1450 services, only 1% of services were performed incorrectly.

The aim of this research was to determine differences in physical activity (PA) level between 3rd grade pupils (3 lessons of PE per week) and 4th grade (2 lessons of PE per week) pupils of elementary school. Partial aims were refering to determine gender differences. The set of entities included 400 3rd and 4th grade pupils of elementary school. In the 3rd grade participated 200 pupils, 93 girls and 107 boys and in the 4th grade 200 pupils participated in the research, of which 102 girls and 98 boys. PA level was estimated by the croatian version of PAQ - C (Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children) which estimates overall weekly PA by summarising nine partial parameters of PA and PA occuring during PE lesson is one of them. Differences in level of overall PA between 3rd grade pupils and 4th grade pupils of elementary school were not determined. Also gender differences in level of overall PA (3rd or 4th grade pupils) were not determined. Only determined gender differences were the ones in some partial parameters of PA. According to the pupil’s average result during PE (4,60), conclusion is that pupils were active often or every time, whereby the purpose of the PE lesson is in large scale fullfilled. The future research need to upgrade questionnaires for estimation of physical activity level based on self-evaluation, also need to determine reasons of pupil’s insufficient levels of PA in some partial parameters of PA in order to raise level of overall PA.

The subject of the research is the evaluation of the competitive performance of the female handball players senior level, with an emphasis on the differences in the competitive activities of successful and less successful teams at the 2019 World Handball Championship held in Japan. The aim was to determine the level of efficiency of competitive activity of female handball players and the differences in the performance of a competitive activity, which potentially exist between successful and less successful handball teams, from the aspect of technical and tactical activities in the attack phase. The sample is represented by the female handball national teams that participated in the recently held Handball World Cup, and the entities are handball matches. The procedures of descriptive and comparative statistics were applied. The conclusion is that, regardless of the top level of handball playing, there are significant differences in the realization of some competitive activities among successful and less successful female national teams. It was also found that the coefficient of efficiency of technical and tactical elements, in numerical sense, determines the success of most handball teams at this level of competition, and that there are differences, in the statistical sense, for 3 of the 7 variables designated as variables characteristic of the attack phase, from who success is directly achieved, respectively, the goals are achieved.

This paper mainly refers to attitudes about the reasons for the avoidance of sports and sports activities of young people who have never been involved in these activities. In this survey involving 226 university and high school students, 110 stated that they had never been involved in sport or any sporting activities. They are surely the most reputed to answer these questions. Of the offered reasons (causes) that are responsible for avoiding and non-participation in sports and sports activities, in the first place is the lack of interest which is stated by about 90% of the respondents. Secondly, the reason why respondents do not deal with sports and sports activities are the obligations at school and at the faculty, and this was confirmed by 85% of respondents. Laziness follows, about this they were very self-critical and sincere, confirming in a percentage of 84.5% that this was one of the reasons for their abstinence from sports and sports activities. Immediately behind laziness are television, there are computers and cell phones with about 80%, and so on. The results showed that male and female, then smokers and non-smokers, do not differ significantly in attitudes about these reasons. It is the same with those who consume, occasionally consume and do not consume alcohol. There is a partial difference between high school students and university students in attitudes to some causes, as well as between those who live in the city, suburban village and village.

A 15-item questionnaire for assessment of stress was applied on a sample of 332 students (age from 19 to 27, 184 males and 148 females). It has been found that over 40% of students have elevated stress levels. The empirical results significantly deviated from the normal distribution. Two groups of participants stood out; the greater group had very elevated levels of stress, while the smaller group had very low average values. When answering questions related to stress, respondents evaluated three elements of lifestyle: the quantity and quality of everyday physical activity, subjective feeling of health and regularity of health checks. Results show that students are not active enough physically and that they rarely check their health. The analysis of variance showed that the highest level of stress is present in students who rated themselves as passive sports lovers, while athletes, amateurs and unexpectedly those who are anti-sports expressed significantly lower levels of stress. Significantly higher levels of stress were present in students who rated their health as poor, while respondents who regularly check their health had the lowest level of stress. Men had higher levels of stress than women.
