Sažetak

The basic determinants of the programmes of playgroups with sports contents are presented. The purpose is to get the children acquainted early with certain sports activities in their pre-school age (4-6/7 years). The basic programme objective is to stimulate the various aspects of the psychophysical development of a child – primarily to influence the conative characteristics, motivation and social status, then, to a lesser extent, the motor abilities and knowledge (skills), and, indirectly, the functional abilities and morphological attributes. So, the objectives of sport playgroups are essentially educational. In methodics (teaching methodology) the focus is on the synthetic approach to learning new motor skills and the conative characteristics transformations, in accordance with “the equation providing success”. The programme promotes the harmonious, versatile psychophysical development of a child and the integral approach to a sport activity as a whole. It promotes stimulation for the further development of the sport specific relevant motor and cognitive abilities and conative characteristics in which a child has been initially or previously successful, meaning, from the aspect of which he/she might be evaluated as a “perspective” young athlete for a particular sport. The enhancement of motivation and improvements only in the general psychosomatic predispositions of a child, apart from information concerning his/her personal traits, can facilitate a selection later of talented individuals for particular sport disciplines, or it might only be a good foundation for a sport active life-style in adulthood.
