Abstract

Topicality. One of the most relevant areas of
the educational process in higher education
institutions of Ukraine is strengthening and
preserving the health of student youth.
Therefore, the study of the influence of the
means of game sports on the level of physical
fitness of students of pedagogical higher
educational institutions is important for
further solving the established problem.
The purpose of the study is to determine the
level of physical fitness and differences in its
structure among students of pedagogical
specialties who are engaged in optional
groups of various game sports.
Research material and methods. 144
students (70 boys and 74 girls) participated in
the study. The experience of playing sports
was 1-7 years. Research methods: analysis
and generalization of normative, scientific
and methodical sources on the topic of
research, pedagogical observation,
pedagogical testing.
Research results. The wide variety of game
activities requires a more detailed study of the
influence of classes in various types of sports
games on indicators of physical fitness of
students of higher education. For the practical
solution of this task, we chose sports that
differ in the structure of competitive activity -
table tennis, volleyball and football. Their
influence on the structure of physical fitness
was studied.
Key findings. As a result of the conducted
research, it was determined that the level of
physical fitness of students of higher
education, who are engaged in optional
groups of game sports, is at a level from above
average to high. According to the research
data, we did not identify significant features
in the structure of physical fitness of representatives of various game sports, which
can be explained by the lack of long
experience in a certain sport.
