All children are different. The needs of boys and
girls in sports training are dramatically different. Children and Sports Training
tells you the practical consequences of these differences.
- Learn what exercises can help a 12-year-old girl reach her full potential but
will harm a boy the same age.
- Learn how to match the right sport with the right child, the right training
program for the age and gender of the child.
- Learn the “sensitive ages” for development of movement abilities
(endurance, coordination, speed, strength, flexibility).
Józef Drabik, Ph.D., is a Professor of the University School of Physical
Education (AWF) in Gdansk, Poland, where he was substantially involved in establishing the
Center for Promotion of Children's Health and Fitness.
Dr. Drabik's publications aside from this book include 120 articles, papers, books, and
other works, but he is much more than a theoretician. He has worked closely with children
and youth throughout his career, both as a coach and p.e. teacher, and five times led his
school's cross-country ski team to national level competitions.
His diagnoses and prescriptions come from working with real children with real needs and
real abilities. He is very aware, in eminently practical ways, of what is possible and not
possible, both for coaches and for children.
Dr. Drabik's training and instruction certifications give some hint of his breadth: Kayak
Coach (1st Class); Cross-country Skiing Instructor; Basic Skating Instructor; Team
Handball Instructor; Volleyball Instructor; Track and Field Instructor; Theory of Sports
Lecturer; Coach Courses Lecturer; and Postgraduate Courses Lecturer.
