Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In this work we studied the physical activities of 1082 pupils in primary schools that were analysed using questionnaires and then evaluated from a perspective of municipal and rural schools as well as from the perspective of the regions the pupils come from.The results were analysed using the TAP programme developed by the GAMO Company in Banská Bystrica.Our survey shows that during the working week almost 20 % of boys perform some physical activities within a time-scale of more than 5 hours a day.In terms of the preference of physical activities, collective sports prevail considerably over individual ones -almost 50 % of all responses.The sports activities offered at schools or in a place of residence are actively performed by less than 14 % of boys.
