Abstract
The aim of the research is to increase the efficiency of the teaching process in the physical education discipline with 14-15-year-old students by combining the game and competition methods. The game method, widely used in physical education lessons in primary education, remains also valid for lower secondary education, but unlike primary grades where play is a method of expressing emotions and knowing the surrounding world, at this stage, the game becomes an element that defines personality. Implementation of the game and competition method in the lessons of physical education is particularly important for teenagers who manifest passivity and indifference, because the attractiveness of lessons increases. Implementation of this method also improves the motor training level and health indicators of the teenagers. Specificity of the methodology lies in comparing forces of the people involved in the game, who behave like rivals in a struggle, which develops with the participant’s volitional qualities. By combining the game method with the competitive method, the real reason of the contest, personal pride, is satisfied. The preventive analysis of the results obtained from questioning 14-15-year-old adolescents highlights their poor motivation for attending physical education classes, dissatisfaction with their quality and lack of self-confidence. The analysis of the physical education teachers’ results reveals their positive attitude towards the use of the game and competition method for the efficiency of these lessons in lower secondary education.
