Organization of domiciliary sports and physical training and recreation activities with children (The case of Irkutsk)

Abstract

In recent decades there have been observed the negative trends in the health of children, adolescents and young adults in the country. There are both general (not related to school) and partly related to the problems of an educational institution reasons for poor health of modern schoolchildren and students and low efficiency of their physical training. Today complication and intensification of the learning process at the cost of health resources of trainees are observed in the educational space and as a consequence - the development of maladaptation and weakening of nocifensors, negative tendencies in the development and behavior of pupils and students become more pronounced. At the same time adverse environmental and climatogeographic characteristics of the Irkutsk region have a negative impact not only on physical development and physical fitness of the young generation, but also on their basic medical and demographic characteristics (fertility, mortality, morbidity and physical health). The authors address the issue of enhancing physical training and recreation activities with children and teenagers in Irkutsk using domiciliary sports grounds in order to improve the physical health of the younger generation. It has been established in the experiment, that this contingent of the child population engaged in additional extra-curricular physical training sessions has better characteristics of physical and motor development compared with the control group. The proposed system of physical education classes for children and adolescents at domiciliary sports grounds not only has a significant impact on the characteristics of physical development and physical fitness of the subjects surveyed, but also affects their health and quality of life in general.
