Title: The impact of a three-month training on motor functions in preschool hockey players Objectives: The goal of this diploma thesis is to summarize the knowledge about motor functions in preschool children. Also to find suitable test methods which should help to evaluate the motor level of children this age who are attending the preparation course in the hockey club Sparta Praha and also evaluate the influence of a three month hockey training on postural maturity and development of motor skills on the regular surface and on the ice. Methods: The pre-experiment was conducted in hockey preparation course HC Sparta Praha in preschool children during their training. It was carried out using 5 tests evaluating postural maturity, which were evaluated by two physiotherapists and 4 tests evaluating the level of motor skills on the regular surface and on the ice, which was measured on time. Tests were performed twice, with a three-month interval. Results: After three months of training, there was no substantial improvement in postural maturity assessment tests, although the consensus of the two physiotherapists in the assessment of the postural tests maturity was relatively high, for both measurements. The top rated test was tandem walk over the line. In this test, there was also the most improvement...

Title: Influence of movement training on motor performance in children Objectives: The author set out to verify whether beach volleyball influences the basic elements of health-related fitness ("HRF"), develops motor literacy in selected children of upper school age, and if so, how. Methods: The author employed empirical quantitative and qualitative research. The basic motor literacy level was identified using the UNIFITTEST (6-60) testing battery. The quantitative analysis relied on evaluating a video recording. The analyzed sample comprised children aged 13 who regularly play beach volleyball, and children of the same age engaging in no regular motor activity. Results: The author concluded that beach volleyball influenced strength, speed and endurance of the basic elements of HRF in members of the sample. At the same time, beach volleyball contributed to cultivating their motor literacy without negative impact on their school attendance. Keywords: movement, fitness, movement deficit, movement benefits, motor tests, motor literacy, survey, quantitative and qualitative analysis, beach volleyball.

The aim of the thesis was to determine the four selected body measurements (body height , body weight , chest circumference , waist circumference) , measuring 3 functional tests (spirometry, dynamometry, Ruffini test) and an assessment of the level of motor skills for boys and girls aged between 13 and 15 years who fall into the general population of predolescence and adolescence school age . Using standard methods somatometric were selected 34 boys aged 13, 34 boys aged 15, 34 girls aged 13 and girls aged 34 to 15 years. The selected parameters were monitored: body length, weight, chest circumference and waist. The research findings also motoric performance of boys and girls aged between 13 and 15 years. Motor performance was tested by 14 motor tests. All this research was conducted at elementary and secondary schools in the South Bohemia Data were recorded in a previously prepared data sheets and were then statistically analyzed and processed in tables and graphs. All obtained data were compared with the results of earlier studies and may serve as reference materials for other researches. Furthermore, function tests were included in the results of the selected in this thesis (spirometry, dynamometry and Ruffini test). These functional tests are aimed primarily at first assessment of fitness of the respiratory and circulatory system in this age group.

The aim of this thesis was to describe the evolution of body size, level of motor and physical skills of children aged 13 and 15 years. The research was carried out in primary schools in the South Bohemian Region. The results were processed for each age group separately, they were compared with the reference files and are presented in tables and graphs. To compare the files, there was used Student´s T-test and Z-score. The boys also filled in a questionnaire in which they answered how often in sports and what sports they pursue. A similar questionnaire was presented to their parents. Questionnaires were also focused on diet and nutrition.

Title: Mutual comparison of results of fitness tests and tests of floorball skills among talented Czech youth and youth from the Vysočina Region. Objectives: The main aim of the Master's thesis is to evaluate the level of player skills and fitness skills among regional youth teams and youth from the Vysočina Region. For the comparison, the categories of younger and older male and female pupils, and junior men and women were selected. Methods: For the purposes of this Master's thesis, the method of quantitative research of the categories of younger and older male and female pupils, and junior men and women in floorball from the Vysočina Region was applied. The floorball test battery of the Czech Floorball, consisting of fourteen player tests focused on floorball skills and fitness skills, of which seven scientifically standardized tests were selected, was used for testing. For the determination of validity, an expert analysis was used, a repeated measurement (test - retest) was performed to determine the reliability of the tests, and the Fleiss' Kappa value was calculated to determine the evaluators' concordance. Results: The results of the paper, based on the comparison of the data of the club from the Vysočina Region, and the regional teams' data, showed that girls (junior women and older female...

Einleitung: Primäres Ziel der Rekonstruktion des vorderen Kreuzbandes (VKB) ist die Verbesserung der Stabilität des Kniegelenkes, doch daran allein lässt sich das Behandlungsergebnis nicht beurteilen. Mit den Daten von 23 Patienten nach VKB-Plastik (4 Jahre p.o.) sollte diskutiert werden, welche Variablen noch geeignet sind, um den Behandlungserfolg zu bewerten. Ergebnisse und Diskussion: Die Kniefunktion im Alltag wurde in den Knie-Scores als gut oder besser beurteilt, die Bewertung beim Sport war etwas schlechter. Die KOS-Scores ADL und Sport haben sich für die Erfassung der subjektiven Zufriedenheit besonders geeignet. Im klinischen Befund gab es kaum Defizite. Die Gelenkbeweglichkeit und Stabilität des VKB (Lachman) sind die relevanten Beurteilungskriterien. Hinsichtlich der Sportfähigkeit war ein Rückgang in Sportarten mit höherer Kniegelenksgefährdung zu sehen. Nur 36,4 % der Patienten sind auf prätraumatischem Niveau aktiv. Die Sportfähigkeit dürfte jedoch für langfristige Evaluationen nicht von Interesse sein, da altersbedingte Veränderungen im Freizeitverhalten einen zunehmenden Einfluss haben. In einbeinigen sportmotorischen Tests, wie dem Nieder-Hoch-Sprung, zeigten sich auf der operierte Seite verlängerte Bodenkontaktzeiten. Dieser Test ist für die Beurteilung genauso geeignet wie der Einbeinweitsprung. Bei diesem war zwar kein Seitenunterschied, jedoch eine verkürzte Sprungweite gegenüber Kniegesunden zu finden. Bei den isokinetischen Messungen fanden sich persistierende Defizite der Extensoren (op. Bein) sowie bilaterale Veränderungen, verglichen mit dem Referenzwert. Ferner lagen auf der op. Seite verminderte Muskeldicken der Mm. vastus medialis et intermedius (knienah) vor. Die Werte der isokinetischen Messung wie der sonografischen Muskeldickenmessung stellen daher wichtige Indikatoren zur Bewertung des Muskelstatus dar. Untersuchungen wie EMG, Ganganalyse, Einbeinstandtest, Beinumfangsmessung, beidbeinige Sprünge und Beintapping ließen keine Defizite erkennen. Diese Verfahren können kaum einen Beitrag zur Einschätzung des Behandlungsergebnisses leisten. Es gab mehrere Hinweise auf bilaterale Veränderungen, daher ist bei vielen Tests der alleinige Seitenvergleich nicht ausreichend. Somit ist zu fordern, dass künftig zur Bewertung des Behandlungsergebnisses nach VKB-Plastik einheitliche Untersuchungsstandards angestrebt sowie Normwerte für diese Testverfahren geschaffen werden. / Introduction: The primary goal of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is to improve knee joint stability; however, this factor alone is not enough in evaluating treatment results. With data from 23 patients (4 years post-op) after reconstruction of the ACL variables will be discussed as to which are well-suited in judging treatment success. Results and discussion: Knee joint function for activities of daily life (ADL) was rated by knee-scores as good or better; for sport activities the rating was somewhat worse. KOS scores for ADL and sport are well-suited for the conceived, subjective contentment. Clinical results show hardly any deficits. Joint range of motion and stability of the ACL (Lachman test) are relevant rating criteria. With regard to sport capability a reduction was seen in sports where a high risk for the knee joint was present. Only 36.4 % of the patients are at a „pre-trauma“-level. Long-term evaluation of sport capability is not of interest, since age-related changes in leisure activity are of increasing influence. By sport motor tests such as the one-leg drop-jump, an increase in ground contact time was seen. This test is just as well-suited for evaluation as the one-leg long jump. This test showed no side difference except for a shortened jumping distance in comparison to the healthy reference group. Isokinetic results reveal persistent deficits of the knee extensors (operated knee) as well as bilateral changes when compared to reference values. Furthermore, reduced muscle thickness of the Mm. vastus medialis et intermedius near the joint was seen. Isokinetic measurement values and sonographic muscle-thickness measurements represent important indicators when evaluating muscle status. Tests such as EMG, gait analysis, one-leg standing test, thigh-girth measurements, two legged jumps and leg-tapping do not reveal any deficits. These tests can hardly contribute to an evaluation of treatment results. There is much evidence of bilateral changes; therefore side comparisons alone are not adequate. It is therefore to encourage standardized examination tests as well as normal values when evaluating treatment results after ACL reconstruction.
