During the interwar period, the Volhynian province was inhabited by, among others,\u0000the Polish, Ukrainian, Jewish, German, Czech and Russian population. In this respect, the Volhynian province stood\u0000out on an all-Poland level.\u0000In the years 1921-1939, associations were set up for individual sports disciplines in the Volhynian province district and\u0000sub-district. During this period, district sports associations were established in, among others, Volhynia, for the following\u0000disciplines: boxing, ice hockey, track-and-fi eld, skiing, football. On the territory of the Volhynian province, sports\u0000structures began to appear on levels lower than districts and sub-districts, within areas of physical activity. The development\u0000of district sports associations in Volhynia was particularly noticeable in the 1930s. In the 1920s, clubs and associations,\u0000running sports sections, mainly made up district sports associations with their seats in Lublin and Lviv. The\u0000establishment of district and sub-district associations in the Volhynian province facilitated the development of sports\u0000competition, making it possible to select the best sportspeople, and also increased the number of sports events.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":354319,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Sport Humanities","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128308591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
