STUDY REGARDING THE ROLE AND PLACE OF CHILDREN'S SPORTS ASSOCIATIONS WITHIN THE CHILDREN'S PALACES/CLUBS IN ROMANIA

Abstract

This research aimed to observe the way in which the children react to the existence of Sports Associations (SA), as well as their predisposition toward following a career related to the practice of physical exercise in a directed manner and following a set of rules. We have also researched the children's possibilities of spending their leisure time in an important sector of the social life, such as sports, and interpersonal relations that form within the sports groups. We have studied the current problems of a SA in a Children's Palace (CP), or Children's Club (CC), their magnitude and causes, as well as making the decision-makers aware of them, to find solutions. A very important goal was to analyze the information, and suggest the solutions that we found to be the most appropriate for the problems.
