Education of moral and volitional qualities of adolescents in sports activities

Relevance. The article deals with the problem related to the education of moral and volitional qualities in the educational and training process of adolescents engaged in sports. The contradiction arising in the practice of sports reserve training is connected with the fact that achievement of high sports results requires the manifestation and thus the formation of personal qualities of young athletes, which are perceived by the society as negative. The methods and techniques of educational influence used by sports teachers often cause disharmony in the personal development of their students. There is a need to develop and implement in the practice of sports training proven methods of development of personal qualities of children and adolescents that meet the requirements of social order.

The purpose of the study is to substantiate the effectiveness of the methodology for the development of moral and volitional qualities of adolescents 12-13 years old engaged in track and field athletics.

Methods and organization of research. To determine the level of development of moral and volitional qualities in adolescents, a specially designed system of five-point evaluation was used. The content of each personal quality was revealed in their main features, which were the main indicators of the level of manifestation of this quality. Each attribute is evaluated in one point. The total evaluation score of each attribute is within the scale from 1 to 5 points. Parents of adolescents, coaches, teachers and class teachers acted as experts. The participants of the forming experiment were adolescents 12-13 years old (boys and girls) engaged in track and field athletics. Two groups were created: control (n=20) and experimental (n=20). The control group was engaged in the standard programme of sports training. The work in the experimental group lasted for one year and provided for the implementation in the educational and training process of the methodology of education of moral and volitional qualities of adolescents.

Conclusions. In the conditions of educational and training process, purposeful activity providing interaction of teachers of secondary school, coaches and parents of teenagers on realization of the offered technique allows to develop effectively moral and volitional qualities of teenagers engaged in track and field athletics.
