Organizational and managerial aspects in improvement of Olympic training at sportsmen under modern conditions of development in Ukraine

Abstract

The performances of Ukrainian athletes at the XXXII Olympic Games have been considered and analyzed. The analysis of studies aimed at investigating the problem of their preparation improvement has been performed. It is shown that the results demonstrated by the national team of Ukraine at the XXXII Olympic Games are presentable for the conditions in which Ukraine now lives. It is noted that today the system of development of the Olympic sports events in Ukraine is not optimal. There is an apparent shortage of modern training centers, inefficient budgetary and extrabudgetary funding, imperfection of statutory and regulatory, and organizational and managerial, scientific and methodological, medical, informational, and staffing support. Therefore, the strategy for the development of the Olympic sports events in the modern conditions of development of Ukraine necessitates the formation and scientific substantiation of conceptual bases for the successful dynamic development of the Olympic sports events. To assess the current state of functioning and development of the Olympic sports events, a PEST- analysis was conducted on fencing material. It is established that in the group of politico-legal factors the most significant is legislative support for the development of sports events in Ukraine; in the group of economic factors - financing and logistics of sports schools; in the social group - the level of coaching and teaching staff and working conditions in sports schools; in the group of technological factors - innovative technologies and their impact on fencing development. The results of the study indicate that fencing development is hampered by several macro-environmental factors and conditions that require certain reforms. As our study shows, the process of functioning and development of the Olympic sports events in modern conditions requires the formation of brand new economic foundations and the search for new organizational and legal forms of their functioning. In our opinion, this is a transition from the extensive model of sports event development, which is used in Ukraine today, to an innovative one. Thus, to ensure further capturing award-winning places at the Olympic Games, a model of innovative development of the Olympic sports events based on a strategic partnership between the state, public sports organizations, science, education, and business should be developed.
