English vocabulary of Czech professional sportsman playing abroad
MENDEL, Dušan
The aim of this bachelor thesis refers to the English vocabulary of Czech professional sportsmen playing abroad. The main goal is to chart the vocabulary of the English-speaking football and hockey commentators and professional sportsmen. The attention is paid to Czech professional football and hockey players who played abroad and their experience with the sports slang. I discuss questions related to the English language with eight sportsmen from the Czech Republic who spent some time in their careers abroad. In the theoretical part, I mention the position of the English language in the World, current English vocabulary, and the topic of a professional sport and language. The work will also include sports slang, football and hockey terminology, and a comparison of Czech and English sports speech. In the practical part, I focus on the vocabulary of football and hockey commentators and sportsmen which I figure out with a help of the video records. Through interviews with selected Czech professional athletes, I find out how football and hockey players communicated in foreign clubs or how big a foreign language was an obstacle for them. I also try to form a table with them, which answers the question of whether athletes understand basic football and hockey terminology.

Athlete as an entrepreneur
Perušič, Ondřej ; Horáček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kohout, David (referee)
Athlete as an entrepreneur Abstract This thesis is focused mainly on the problematic of the athlete's role as an entrepreneur from the perspective of business law. Its goal is not only to describe the current situation and answer some questions related to the topic, but also to point out some very problematic facts and think about possible solutions to the very unsatisfactory situation of today's legislation on professional sports. In the first two chapters I would like to underline some specifics of the athlete's position as an entrepreneur and how it differs from the classic, normal entrepreneurship that we know. I would also like to emphasize quite serious lack on the field of terminology, that makes the necessary process of change even more difficult. Next two chapters will be focused on the two main aspects of athlete's entrepreneurship. First one concerns the contracts and obligations he is taking part in and the typical structure of legal bonds that it creates. In this chapter I would also like to describe the specific types of contracts that are either the most common ones or somehow unusual and specific for sports. The second chapter out of the two mentioned above will focus on the litigations that arise from these contrats or other legal reasons. I will only briefly introduce the problematics of...

Brychta, Petr ; Heller, Jan (advisor) ; Havel, Zdeněk (referee) ; Harsa, Pavel (referee)
Title: The influence of age, gender and movement activity on the reaction abilities of lower limbs. Objectives: The main objective of this dissertation was to find the reaction abilities of pubescent's (aged 10 - 15years) lower limbs on the basis of age, gender and movement activity. The further aim was to determine the pubescence period (age) when the most noticeable decrease of the visual disjunctive motor response time of lower limbs occurs. Methods: 214 boys and girls aged 10-15 years (157.8 ± 10.8 cm; 47.2 ± 10.7 kg) participated in this research. Simple, choice and disjunctive reaction time of lower limbs was measured through the Fitro Agility Check test. The results processing, including statistical procedures, was carried out using the Matlab (MathWorks, Inc.) programming environment, an IBM SPSS Statistics 22. Three-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests (α=0.05) were used to determine the individual parameters connection. Results: With increasing age, year over year, we found important differences and reaction time decreases of all types of reaction speeds. Testing brings to light the fact that the most noticeable decrease of both selection and disjunctive reaction time of lower limbs are between groups of 11 year olds (11.00-11.99) and 12 year olds (12.00-12.99).
