Annotation

The combat activities provide a simple and varied tool to improve the quality of the physical activity lessons. The content of the Didactics of combat sports course systematically builds on and develops the content of the course combat sports, which students took in the first year of the Bachelor's degree.

The course appeals to the applicability of the combat activities for the creation of training programs of a wide range of focus. The basic line of the topics discussed consists of the areas of tumbling activities included in the School PE curiculum.

During the teaching, emphasis is placed on adapting the difficulty of the exercises depending on the diverse capabilities of the target group (heterogeneous groups or vulnerable individuals). The course frames the use of the activities for the needs of school physical education, or for the further fitness development of practitioners in other sports that work with the contact component of the movement (football, handball, basketball).

The combat activities provide opportunities for the development of initiative and combativeness, control of fear for dealing with contact game situations and improvement of the game potential of players. In non-contact sports, they serve as an opportunity to compensate or diversify the training routine.

Students in the course have significant input into the selection of lesson content after considering the relevance to their future careers.
