En aquesta Tesi Doctoral, s'ha fet una recerca sobre les instal·lacions dels clubs de tennis de Catalunya, amb la intenció de poder determinar-ne unes pautes de disseny. Atesa la particularitat d'aquest tipus d'instal·lació, que per la no poliesportivitat de l'espai de joc ha quedat fora de la Xarxa Bàsica especificada i estudiada per la Generalitat de Catalunya, s'ha cregut convenient endegar aquest estudi i aportar algunes consideracions per a la seva concepció i disseny. Cal remarcar la intenció d'estudiar la instal·lació en la complexitat amb la que ens la trobem habitualment, és a dir, distribuïda heterogèniament en el territori i constituïda per espais esportius, complementaris i auxiliars.La fonamentació teòrica ha aportat la revisió de conceptes entorn l'espai esportiu i que fan referència a l'evolució històrica, la concepció urbanística i de planificació territorial, i la vessant sociològica. Posteriorment, i entrant en la fonamentació metodològica, s'ha fet una recerca aplicada en la mesura que s'han traslladat els conceptes recollits i revisats en el marc teòric dins de la realitat pròpia dels espais esportius de tennis, i a Catalunya. Per a dur a terme aquesta part, s'han desenvolupat propostes d'anàlisi geogràfica i territorial, esbrinant els motius de l'heterogènia distribució actual de pistes de tennis i determinant els dèficits territorials a través de l'aplicació de les eines existents del planejament.La utilització d'aquestes eines ha facilitat la revisió dels paràmetres descriptius i classificatoris de les instal·lacions esportives, i ha permès determinar quins d'aquests paràmetres són definibles des del disseny i aplicables en el cas de les pistes de tennis. Aquest ha estat el punt de partida per a l'elaboració d'un instrument d'observació i estudi de l'espai esportiu concret (pista de tennis) en la realitat organitzativa en què sol trobar-se al nostre país (clubs).A través de l'aplicació sobre una mostra representativa de clubs s'han cercat aquells valors del model d'anàlisi que han fet possible, per una banda acostar-se a la comprensió de l'objecte d'estudi i per altra esbrinar, amb la interrelació dels seus indicadors, els valors que proporcionen major idoneïtat quant al disseny en cada nivell d'observació. / En esta Tesis Doctoral, se ha planteado una investigación sobre las instalaciones de los clubes de tenis de Cataluña, con la intención de poder determinar unas pautas de diseño. Dada la particularidad de este tipo de instalación, que por la no poli deportividad del espacio de juego ha quedado fuera de la Xarxa Bàsica (Red Básica) especificada y estudiada por la Generalitat de Catalunya, se ha considerado conveniente realizar este estudio y aportar algunas consideraciones para su concepción y diseño. Es preciso remarcar la intención de analizar la instalación con la complejidad que nos la encontramos habitualmente, es decir, distribuida heterogéneamente en el territorio y constituida por espacios deportivos, complementarios y auxiliares.La fundamentación teórica ha aportado la revisión de conceptos alrededor del espacio deportivo y que hacen referencia a la evolución histórica, la concepción urbanística y de planificación territorial, y la vertiente sociológica. Posteriormente, y entrando en la fundamentación metodológica, se ha realizado una investigación aplicada en la que los conceptos recogidos y revisados en el marco teórico han sido trasladados a la realidad concreta de los espacios deportivos de tenis, y a Cataluña. Para desarrollar esta parte, se han realizado propuestas de análisis geográfico y territorial, buscando los motivos de la heterogeneidad en la distribución actual de pistas de tenis y determinando el déficit territorial a través de la aplicación de los instrumentos existentes de planificación.El uso de estas herramientas ha facilitado la revisión de parámetros descriptivos y clasificatorios de las instalaciones deportivas, y ha hecho posible la determinación de aquellos parámetros que son definibles desde el diseño y aplicables en el caso de las pistas de tenis. Este ha sido el punto de inicio para la elaboración de un instrumento de observación y estudio del espacio deportivo concreto (pista de tenis) según la forma organizativa que suele encontrarse en nuestro país (clubes).A través de la aplicación sobre una muestra representativa de clubes se han buscado aquellos valores del modelo de análisis que han hecho posible, por un lado acercarse a la comprensión del objeto de estudio, y por otro concretar, con la interrelación de sus indicadores, los valores que proporcionan mayor idoneidad en cuanto al diseño de cada nivel de observación. / In this Doctoral Thesis, research has been conducted on tennis club facilities in Catalonia, with the aim of determining some design guidelines. Given the peculiarity of this type of sports facility, which due to its non-multisport character has been left out of the Xarxa Bàsica (Basic Network) specified and studied by the Generalitat de Catalunya, then we believe it is necessary to begin this study and provide some considerations for their conception and design. It is important to point out that we intend to study these facilities with the complexity with which we usually find them, that is to say, with a heterogeneous distribution in the territory and made up of sports, complementary and auxiliary spaces.The theoretical base has provided a review of concepts surrounding the sports space and their historical evolution, their urban planning and the sociological aspects. Later, and going into the methodological foundations, applied research has been carried out because the concepts, collected and reviewed in the theoretical framework have been applied in the specific reality of the tennis courts, and in Catalonia. To carry out this part, we have developed proposals for geographical and territorial analysis, searching for the reasons for the current heterogeneous distribution of tennis courts and determining territorial deficits through the implementation of existing planning tools.The use of these tools has facilitated the review of the descriptive and classifying parameters of sports facilities and it has allowed us to determine which of these parameters are definable from design and to be applied in the case of tennis courts. This was the starting point for the creation of an instrument to observe and study specific sports spaces (tennis courts) in the organisational reality that we normally find in our country (clubs). Applying this to a representative sample of clubs, we search for the values of the analysis model which on the one hand make possible the approach to understanding the object of study, and on the other hand, to know, with the interrelation of its indicators, the values that provide greater suitability for the design in each level of observation.

This thesis, entitled "The effect of physiotherapy on the function of postural motorics in competitive sportsmen (tennis players)", deals with how the activation of the deep stabilizing muscles affects postural functions in adolescent tennis players. A group of 13 competitive tennis players, aged between 10 and 17 years, were used as our probands. These subjects were examined with a bespoke set of tests of functions and then they were individually educated to train with a set of stabilization functions. After the therapy, they were re-examined with this set of tests again and the results of both sets of tests were compared and evaluated. In particular, we evaluated the changes in reactions of individual players, the changes in separate tests and in groups of tests, and the position of players in match rankings.

This dissertation consists of five articles about economics of sports. The first three articles investigate various types of outcome uncertainty and how they relate to match attendance demand, while the remaining two articles test the efficiency of sports betting markets. The first article presents a new method of calculating match importance. Unlike the previous approaches in the literature, it does not require ex-post information and can be used for any type of season outcome. The second article shows that the additional playoff stage in the Czech ice hockey "Extraliga" lowers the probability of the strongest team becoming a champion and thus increases seasonal uncertainty. The third article demonstrates that the inconsistent findings in the literature about the link between match uncertainty and attendance could be explained by wrongly specified regressions, proposes a new approach to analyzing the effect of match uncertainty and shows that attendance demand is maximized if teams of the same quality play against each other. The fourth article examines the favorite-longshot bias in the context of betting on tennis matches. It shows that the favorite-longshot bias pattern is consistent with bookmakers protecting themselves against both better informed insiders and the general public exploiting new information. The fifth article investigates the supposedly profitable strategy of betting on soccer draws using the Fibonacci sequence. The strategy is tested both in a simulated market and on a real data set and found to lose money.

The design of the sports and recreation center in Vsetín solves the complete revitalization of the unused territory on the periphery of the town in the Ohrada district. The aim of the project is to revive the poorly accessible and neglected area and its use not only for a wide range of sports activities, but also for leisure activities and recreation. The whole area should be freely accessible and open to a wide range of public. Four main buildings are designed in the complex: a multi-purpose sports hall, a hotel, a tennis club and a snack bar with a bicycle service. There is a football field, a basketball court and a small football pitch on the open spaces between these objects, as well as two climbing walls, an outdoor gym and a parkour area with many obstacles. The rest of the areas are pavements and free grass areas intended for leisure and recreation of visitors.

The diploma thesis was preceded by a specialized atelier focusing on the urban – architectural design of the area of „Vsetín – Ohrada“. During this project, I was mainly focusing on the analysis of the area and the basic design. The project focuses on the area in the southern part of Vsetín. Its borders are formed by Vsetínská Bečva from the northwest side, the 1st class expressway from the northeast side and the waterworks building from the south. The main goal of the project is to attract more visitors to the quiet nature oriented area, who will be provided with a large number of outdoor and indoor activities that can be done in the area. The area is separated by a bridge and an industrial zone from the outskirts of the city and thus lacks a connection to urban development. The project is therefore designed as a separate urban unit, reflecting the natural aspects of the whole area. The advantage of the place is the previously mentioned river Bečva flowing directly through the area and a bike path lining the right bank of this river. Buildings with added soil to create slopes with hangout areas form, among other things, a noise and aesthetic barrier from the city, turning attention to the river and nature. The grass-covered slopes will be made of soil obtained from the current slopes of soil under the auditorium around the spartakiad stadium as well as the excavation work of the newly designed buildings. These slopes also visually unify the buildings, contribute to the organic and natural appearance of the entire design, create hangout areas for spectators and add back the grass areas that were taken away because of the construction of the buildings.

Diploma thesis of was preceded by a specialized studio focused on the development of urban-architectural design in the area of "Vsetín - Ohrada". The newly created objects have the a task of transform the whole territory, which nowadays deteriorate. The solved area is separated by the highest industrial zone from the edge of the city and after the connection to the urban area. The whole sports complex is conceived as an independent urban complex, mainly linked to the surrounding nature. These are cycle paths that are designed for the entire area. The center is designed for the needs of the population of Vsetín and its catchment areas. Sports, recreational options for all ages. The grassy wall divides the river from the city and reflects the calm zone by the river, and at the same time divides large flat areas. In addition to sports, the area offers wellness, gastro and meeting places. The advantage of this place is cycling trail parallel to the beautiful nature. Moreover, the grassy wall is used to hide service roads and parking spaces. This ensures excellent transport accessibility and supply, but does not interfere with the sports complex. Wall created from excavations of single buildings and demolition works of the original stadium will achieve a safe transition from one sports ground to another, creating a natural observation post and incorporating buildings and sports facilities to become part of the wall and form a single unit. By embedding buildings in the wall, the buildings visually diminish. The embedded sports ground is bounded on two sides by a rampart and the third by a staircase. It can be used as a grandstand, or to enter the ridge of the dike. This minimizes the need for unsightly fencing on each pitch. With the new concept we will meet the requirements of visitors in the given locality and, above all, the attractiveness of the whole area will be increased.
