The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic and Related Measures on the Sports Industry in Slovakia

Stopping competitions and the training process was a shock that sports organizations had to deal with. Financial problems forced them to rethink the situation. In Slovakia, this became critical. This is why we started to research this issue to provide an answer to the research question: What are the actual consequences of government measures on the sports industry? A survey was conducted including two questionnaires made available between the pandemic waves. The first questionnaire was designed for athletes and sports professionals (N = 1040). The second addressed sports organizations (N = 626). Questionnaires were accessible via sports organizations’ portals. The ban on organizing mass sports events affected this industry. More than 80% of respondents had an experience of having to cancel a competition or training activity. This had an impact on their income as well as their future activities. We cooperate with government institutions and sports associations in Slovakia, so the results were provided to government officials. However, due to political changes accompanied by changes in the ministries responsible for the sports industry in Slovakia, it is relevant to summarize the research results in their present form. In this way they can serve as background for future sports policies.

Paris 2024 Olympic Games: A risk enhancer for autochthonous arboviral diseases epidemics?

ObjectivesThe anticipated increase in international tourist flows and the first locally acquired dengue cases in the Paris region in October 2023 have raised concerns about potential arbovirus outbreaks during the 2024 Olympics. Unlike previous mass sporting events at risk of arbovirus outbreaks, Paris is a nonendemic arbovirus area, requiring a unique investigation. MethodsTherefore, we analyzed factors conducive to possible arbovirus epidemics in temperate regions: vector distribution in the Paris area, seasonal global arboviral disease patterns, projected visitor demographics, and international flight bookings. Results and conclusionOur results suggest that the expected visitors’ profile for the summer of 2024 should not increase the risk of arbovirus importation into the Paris region compared to a typical year. Conversely, the primary risk of arbovirus outbreaks is likely to come from within France, particularly from the French West Indies, where a notable, albeit declining, dengue outbreak is underway. Vigilant surveillance by French health authorities will ensure that this trend continues.

Characteristics of the participants in mass sporting events in Vietnam

This study aimed to examine the characteristics of athletes and spectators at mass sports competitions, focusing on aspects such as quantity, age, gender, educational level, occupation, and income to provide a comprehensive demographic overview. The study employed a sociological survey method, sampling 10 localities out of 63 provinces and cities across Vietnam. The survey included 520 spectators (Group 1) and 220 athletes (Group 2), resulting in a total sample size of 740 participants. The results are illustrated using graphical representations. The majority of spectators at mass sport events are aged 23 to under 60, whereas athletes show a more even age distribution, indicating lower student participation in spectating. Men significantly outnumber women. Most participants hold high school or university degrees, with the largest group being unskilled workers. Students, freelancers, and retirees are more evenly distributed. Professional field participants make up 35.5% of the total. Income-wise, most participants are middle to high-income earners, with nearly half earning between 5 and 10 million VND per month, and 42.3% earning over 10 million VND. Low-income and very high-income individuals are mostly spectators, while medium to high-income individuals are more likely to be athletes.

Current sports safety problems in Ukraine and the world

The article is devoted to the analysis and assessment of current problems and challenges faced by sports in Ukraine and the world, in connection with global crisis processes that lead to profound social changes. In recent years, the issue of sports safety in the world has become more relevant against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, and in Ukraine due to military operations on its territory. Thus, security protocols are gradually undergoing changes and actions to ensure security of various levels are adapted to modern conditions. Safety instructions for mass sports events of various levels, orders of specialized services and ministries of various countries regarding the organization of events on their territory, government resolutions and laws regulating the safety of athletes, spectators and sports facilities were analyzed. Globalization processes are rapidly changing, which requires quick solutions without losing their quality. The topic of sports safety has become more relevant in recent decades. Sport is a global phenomenon that unites representatives of all social groups and strata. Although the official slogan of the international sports movement, which is supported by all its members, is: "Sports outside of politics", but at the same time, it is a powerful means of political influence and manipulation. History has seen many boycotts driven by political decisions in response to wrongful or military actions by one party against another. Everyone remembers the terrorist attacks committed at the Olympic Games and other international competitions. All this led to the intensification of the development of research in the field of sports safety. At the same time, sports competitions, especially international ones, attract the attention of a large number of spectators, which causes the desire of world political leaders, public figures, representatives of culture and art, etc. to participate in them.The study showed that the process of adaptation and response is imperfect and requires careful study and analysis, which determines the relevance of the topic.

Interorganizational Knowledge Transfer in Mass Gatherings: Exploring the Health and Safety Stakeholders' Perceptions Participating in the Athens Marathon.

Mass gatherings (MGs) usually represent significant challenges for the public health and safety sector of the host cities. Organizing a safe and successful mass event highly depends on the effective collaboration among different public and private organizations. It is necessary to establish successful coordination to ensure that all the key stakeholders understand their respective roles and responsibilities. The inconsistency between the variety of participating agencies because of their different culture can result in delays in decision making. Interorganizational knowledge transfer can improve the success of the event; however, knowledge transfer among professionals and agencies in MGs is not well-documented. This study used the 2018 Athens Marathon as the empirical setting to examine how interorganizational knowledge transfer was perceived among the multiple public health and safety professionals during the planning stage of the event. Data comprised 18 semi-structured, in-depth interviews with key informants, direct observations of meetings, and documentary analysis. Open coding and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data. Findings indicated that sharing the acquired knowledge was a necessary and challenging step to create an enabling collaborative environment among interacting organizations. Experiential learning was identified as a significant factor, which helped promote joint understanding and partnership work. Informal interpersonal exchanges and formal knowledge transfer activities facilitated knowledge sharing across organizational boundaries, helping to break down silos. Interorganizational knowledge transfer is a necessary step to achieve joint understanding and create an environment where interaction among agencies can be more effective. The study findings can be beneficial for organizers of marathons and other mass sporting events to support valuable interorganizational collaboration and conduct a safe event.

REVIEW OF COUNTER-TERRORISM SYSTEMS DURING SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES IN THE 21ST CENTURY

The research results presented in the article pertain to the organization of security systems by the host countries during the Summer Olympic Games in Athens (2004), Beijing (2008), London (2012), and Rio de Janeiro (2016). The central part of the considerations focuses on the complex issue of searching for methods and tools to effectively protect participants of such large mass sports events, not only against terrorists. Taking into account the identified problem situation, it was agreed that the aim of the article will be to characterize the security methods and tools employed by the organizers of the Summer Olympic Games. The research was conducted with the use of selected theoretical scientific methods, including analysis, synthesis, comparison, analogy, generalization, and inference. These methods were applied in a structured way to a research process that focused on case studies of selected Summer Olympic Games that were considered representative samples. The results of the carried out research clearly indicate a high complexity of the security systems created for the needs of the Olympic Games. In every analyzed case, the need occurred to integrate state institutions and international organizations, including various agencies dealing with security issues, including terrorism. Additionally, based on the obtained results, it was also determined that properly forecasting threats is crucial in ensuring the safety of participants in the Olympic Games. It should be further emphasized that in each analyzed case study, the organizers of these large sports events fulfilled their role as hosts very well. They should, therefore, be recognized as a good example for other countries that will apply for organizing this type of mass sports events in the future. They must also be aware that each sporting event of this type requires a significant organizational and financial effort and that the threats are not limited to terrorism but can be posed by various external and internal factors. This article is one of the first attempts to assess the justification of implementing various methods and tools to the security systems of mass international sporting events through the prism of their effectiveness. In addition, the proposed solutions, including the threat forecasting methodology, may be useful to both practitioners and theoreticians in creating more effective solutions in the field of national and international security.

Physical education as one of the ways of adaptation of foreign students to the new cultural and educational conditions

Social, psychological and cultural adaptation of foreign students is the most difficult process. Studying at Ukrainian universities for foreigners is associated with a number of problems. Physical education can help solve these problems. Physical activity is a means of restoring physical, mental and emotional st rength, helps to cope with stress and educational loads more easily. It is in physical activity that the reserves of increasing the efficiency of the adaptation process are hidden. In the process of physical education, students have to interact and communicate not only verbally, but often also on a non-verbal level. Such communication helps to overcome the language barrier more easily. It was determined that the provision of physical education services to foreign citizens and the interaction of teachers and students has a number of features due to the level of their physical development, religion, length of stay in Ukraine, national traditions, particularly in the field of physical education. The purpose of the research: to reveal the peculiarities of the use of means and methods of physical culture in classes with foreign students. As a result of research, it was found that foreign students (young men) from Arab countries and CIS countries are not inferior to Ukrainian students in the manifestation of basic physical qualities. The level of physical fitness of students from India is significantly lower than the indicators of students from Ukraine and Arab countries, which obliges teachers to offer them loads taking into account their level of physical fitness. Thus, for a more effective adaptation of foreign students in the field of physical culture, it is necessary to: conduct classes taking into account the religious and cultural mentality of foreign students; use the game and competitive method in physical education classes; attract foreign students to participate in mass sports events; to introduce adapted physical culture into the training program of foreign students, especially in the initial courses of study.

Sudden Cardiac Arrests During the 2021 Taipei Marathon after COVID-19 Confinement in Taiwan

Introduction:Large-scale mass-sporting events pose unique challenges for emergency health teams. Data is limited in athletes with sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs) and the emergency medical services (EMS) in major sporting events that took place after the coronavirus pandemic.Method:This retrospective observational study describes data from the Taipei Marathon event that took place on December 19, 2021, in Taiwan. The temperature was about 15.2–19.3°C. Four SCAs among 18,144 half-marathoners and the EMS were enrolled.A medical command center was set up 100 meters from the finish line. Ten medical tents, one first-aid station, and nine event ambulances were distributed along the course, and one medical tent was placed near the baggage storage area. Each medical tent comprised: 1 doctor, 1–3 nurses, and 1–3 paramedics. The in-event EMS also comprised a mobile first-aid team. Thirty paramedics rode motorcycles and carried automated external defibrillators and emergency medical kits throughout the racecourse.Results:Among the 7,811 full- and 18,144 half-marathoners, the total number of SCAs was four male half-marathoners. Three runners (75%) stated that they decreased their weekly running volume during the pandemic restrictions’ period. Two runners (50%) experienced cardiac arrest in the final quarter of the race. The median interval of time between SCA occurrence and EMS arrival was 2.5 minutes (interquartile range, 0.5–4 minutes). Electric shocks were delivered to all the four runners (100%) experiencing ventricular fibrillation, and all of them were successfully resuscitated in the field. The median interval of cardiopulmonary resuscitation duration before return of spontaneous circulation was 8.5 minutes (interquartile range, 6–9.5 minutes).Conclusion:4/18144 is a significantly high number of SCA compared to data from the annual Taipei Half-Marathon between 2016 and 2020 and past half-marathons worldwide. The high prevalence rate of SCA (22 per 100,000) may be due to inadequate acclimation and training volumes.

Comparative analysis of motor activity levels of future police officers of different training courses

A comparative analysis of the levels of motor activity of future police officers of different training courses was carried out. Modern scientific literature has been elaborated, which illuminates the current state of motor activity of young people and the methods of its determination. It was established that the appropriate level of physical activity of students of higher education is a key factor of a healthy lifestyle and means of recovery. It was determined that the needs of the human body in motor activity are always individual and depend on a number of physiological, socio-economic and cultural factors and are largely determined by hereditary and genetic characteristics. The Framingham method of determining daily motor activity is considered, which allows you to obtain complete information about the duration of a specific type of activity and rest, a combination of physical exertion of different intensities, the total duration of various types of activity and the amount of energy expenditure. Cadets of the National Academy of Internal Affairs of the first (2022 recruitment), second (2021 recruitment), and third courses (2020 recruitment) majoring in Law Enforcement (n=178) took part in the study. Using the Framingham method, the motor activity index and daily energy expenditure of future law enforcement officers were determined. An unreliable difference in the motor activity index of future police officers of different training courses was established (p<0.05). It was found that the motor activity index of the first-year cadets was 32.68±0.45 points, the second - 33.97±0.50, the third - 33.09±0.44. Daily energy consumption is 2537±33.9, 2633.2±37.1 and 2571±32.6 kcal, respectively. The need to increase the level of motor activity of future law enforcement officers by involving them in mass sports events and extracurricular physical exercises was determined. We see prospects for further research in conducting a comparative analysis of indicators of motor activity of future police officers in the conditions of distance and face-to-face training.
