STEJSKALOVÁ, Monika
The aim of diploma thesis was to create a sequence of snowboard exercises for primary school pupils. These exercises were then tested with children from Základní škola T. G. Masaryka Vimperk, aged 6 to 10 years. In order to create and test the methodical sequence, two winter training sessions were organized. The first five-day session for pupils from the 2nd to the 5th grade took place in December 2017, while the second session for children of the 1st grade was realized in January 2018. Both groups were directed in the same way. On the first day, exercises for getting to know the snowboard were implemented. The remaining days were then spent on the slope. By the last day of training, both groups were able to ride a slope using skidded turns. 58% of the pupils managed to learn frontside carved turns, while 42% learned backside carved turns. The main contribution of the diploma thesis is the sequence of exercises which can be used by teachers and trainers to teach snowboarding.

Kubišta, Adam ; Gnad, Tomáš (advisor) ; Fořterová, Petra (referee)
Title: Comparison of snowboarding on simulator Maxxtracks and snow Author: Adam Kubišta Head of work: PaedDr. Tomáš Gnad Objective: In this study, the aim is to compare snowboard riding and teaching methodology on a Maxxtracks simulator and snow. Methods: The combination of data analysis and qualitative research, in the forms of interviews, has been chosen. The interviews were conducted primarily to gain an objective view, as that is crucial in teaching snowboarding, due to the limited forms of schooling. Results: Ride on a Maxxtracks simulator is in many aspects similar to a ride on snow. It has its advantages and disadvantages. Based on our work, which is backed by interviews with snowboarding instructors, the simulator seems to be beneficial for teaching beginners. The advantage of the Maxxtracks simulator is the training hand bar and a mirror, which helps to control the body movement. The disadvantage is the disability to practice all snowboarding skills. Therefore, the schooling is incomplete and should be continued on snow. Key words: Snowboarding, technique and methodology of riding, simulator

Skiing and snowboarding at first grade of elementary
Lutašová, Andrea ; Přibyl, Ivan (advisor) ; Hronzová, Marie (referee)
This academic work deals with children who are school age or younger school age and their interest in skiing and snowboarding. It tries to expose the reason of decreasing attendance at ski courses offered by schools. The research made by questionnaire shows that most of the children attending lower grades of elementary schools do some sport. They would also like to attend the ski course but they often listed finances as the obstacle. The results of interviews made with teachers of elementary schools and high schools display that only the children who had experienced winter sports either before entering elementary school or soon after entering school want to participate. This work considers as important placing the ski courses at the first grade of the elementary schools. The number of children interested in winter sports would increase. More of them would consider participating at ski courses that help raising the physical and mental condition. Keywords: younger school age, physical activities, snowboarding, skiing
