Self-development of Sport Managers and Coaches Under Conditions of Education Digitalization

Abstract

The influence of the trainer on the athlete, his attitudes and training methods, is one of the key factors in the formation of successful sportsman training. However, in the current rapidly changing conditions of the modern world, trainers, both old and experienced, and young professionals, need to constantly improve and expand their knowledge. Based on the studies of a number of scientists by trainers who regularly attend various advanced training courses, athletes compete more successfully in competitions than specialists who prefer to rely on the knowledge gained during training at the university. Nevertheless, the concept of “the success of a child’s sports training” has a broader meaning than achieving a prize in competitions. In contrast to the performance of competitions, the concept of “the success of a child’s sports training” is integrative, including interrelated and correlating components. For the successful development of the components of success and their indicators, the trainer needs to have knowledge of the competent construction of sports training for the child. In order to provide trainers with such knowledge, the author has developed a continuing education program “Pedagogical conditions for the formation of the success of children in the process of sports training”.
