Abstract

Physical training and education of children are essential components of the educational process. Regular athletic activities (sport at school, extra-curricular sport activities) in childhood and adolescence promote harmonic growth, physical performance, and the development of personality. Exercise tolerance depends on biological and calendar age, on sex, on the state of health, and on general physical strength. Sports medicine creates the preconditions for the application of the means and methods of physical culture and sports for the consolidation of health. After prolonged disease or because of chronic disease pupils are given a partial exemption from school sports. The sports physicians and teachers have to engage these young people in a regular physical training adjusted to their reduced exercise tolerance.
