STUDY ON THE IMPORTANCE OF EXTRACURRICULAR SPORTS ACTIVITIES REGARDING THE DEVELOPMENT OF MOTOR QUALITIES IN PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN

Abstract

In the age of modern and advanced technology, it is observed that sedentarism is characteristic to occupy a wide spectrum of the population from children to the elderly. As for children, they are no longer active when we talk about physical activity both during school hours, but especially in their free time. In this context, the school must encourage the active participation of students in physical activities during the classes included in the school curriculum and after, by offering an attractive variety of extracurricular sports aimed at motivating students, especially those in primary school.
