Karas, Daniel ; Šíma, Jan (advisor) ; Štědroň, Jakub (referee)
Title: Testing of model for predicting the outcome of professional tennis matches Objectives: The aim of this work is to create a simple and easy to understand model to predict tennis matches. Methods: In this thesis it was used secondary analysis of the data for gaining a relevant and current information. In this work it was emphasized on valid data, which should come from the reliable sources. Further, mathematic and statistical methods were used to obtain calculation for determination correct predictions. The obtained data were processed a then they were presented within tables. Results: The modified model based on the Low-point model, which was simplified so the general public could understand it and which used easily searchable and immediately available data, successfully predicted the tournament Australian Open 2021. At the end of the tournament we had more money on the fictitious account than at the beginning. The model was able to correctly predict 5 out of 7 matches and it was in profit when betting on the predicted winner as well as betting on the advantage of the odds. However, when the model was validated at the next two Grand Slams, this model was at loss, so we cannot designate it as long-term profitable. Keywords: tennis, prediction, bet, Australian Open, Grand Slam

Benešová, Tina ; Waic, Marek (advisor) ; Šíma, Jan (referee)
Title: An outline of the development of the Czech sport financing after 1989 Objectives: The main aim of this thesis is to analyse the development of the czech sport financing from the selected resources after 1989 till the present situation and it's prospect included in The concept sports funding 2016 - 2025 SPORT 2025 Methods: The basic method used in this thesis is the method of document analysis. Fundamental documents include legislative documents, especially The Lottery Act and its updating and The Act on Promotion of Sports. Aditional resources represent analytic and comparative studies prepared by ČOV, ČUS and MŠMT conception. Another method is statistic analysis of quantitative data, in form of termporal lines, which are processed into basic charts and diagrams. Results: In recent 25 years have been significant changes in sports funding established. The turning point is considered the year 2011, when czech sport lost two stable financial resources. Primarily the company Sazka, a.s. went bankrupt, secondarily the amendment of the lottery act was accepted and has discontinued offtakes for public utility objects. Since then an optimal sports funding system is sought. State sports support shows a long-term downward trend and belongs to the lowest rank in the EU comparison. efforts to improve...

Odds betting as a form of pathologic gambling among adolescents
DOKULIL, Ondřej
The diploma thesis focuses on fixed-odds betting among male adolescents. In theoretical part, game as a whole life matter is explained, afterwards it aims closer to hazard game, especially fixed-odds betting. Regarding to children, multiple smaller studies, focused on risky behaviour on the internet and gambling, are introduced. Empirical part combines qualitative and quantitative approach. Interviews with betters jointly with the theory creates the base for hypothesises and questionnaire, which was distributed in five schools; three elementary and two high schools. Results of the empirical part are suggesting that adolescent boys have experiences with fixed-odds betting even though they are not of age. Frequently, the reason for betting is being involved in sport and the favourite form is on-line betting.

Use of Poisson distribution for prediction of sports matches results
Svoboda, Ondřej ; Malá, Ivana (advisor) ; Čabla, Adam (referee)
The aim of this master thesis is to verify possibility to use Poisson distribution for predicting soccer matches. At first for analysis is applied the original model from English statisticians Mark J. Dixon and Stuart G. Coles from 1997. Thereafter the model is extended in the thesis. All models are based on the maximum likelihood method. Chosen league for deducing conclusions is the first English league - Premier League. The matches are played in the period from season 2004/2005 to half of season 2015/2016. For identification of models performance are used the most market odds from American bookmaker Pinnacle. In the theoretical part are described models and statistical methods that are used in the practical part. In the practical part are realized calculations. Counted performance of models is based on profit from market odds. In the period ex-post are calculated optimum model parameters that are used in the ex-ante period, where is calculated performance of the model. The thesis answers question: Are these models gaining from public database effective in modern age?

Neglected corporate governance and its consequences: The case of Sazka, a. s.
Vrátníková, Kateřina ; Hrubý, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Seidler, Jakub (referee)
Importance of corporate governance as a setting of relations between management and shareholders of a corporation has been widely acknowledged in the past years. Mechanisms of corporate governance are very important in order to increase overall trust in the company and among the individual part of a corporation, especially between managers and investors. At the same time, these mechanisms should serve to shareholders to monitor better activity of management. However, shareholders must understand that an ownership stake obliges them to execute their shareholders rights and to be involved in the life of company, if they require adequate financial results. This paper describes possible negative consequences of a bad setting of corporate governance mechanisms and of resignation on execution shareholders rights using an example of a leading Czech lottery company SAZKA, a.s which went bankrupt in May 2011 and whose shareholders were Czech umbrella sports associations. It aims to show that it was the wrong practice of corporate governance which caused the failure of this company and not only the investment into a construction of a multifunctional arena in Prague which was rather a consequence, or a product of the neglected corporate governance. Also this study shows, that behaviour of shareholders who...
