摘要:Ninety-two parents of nine to eleven-year-olds who train handball, have been polled, in order to defi ne parents’ attitudes towards sport in the sport initiation phase. The importance of upbringing and education, the role of a coach and the perception of a top sport as a possible child’s future; are the topics dealt with in the poll questions. Two statements reveal a signifi cant difference between parents with fi nished high-school and college graduates, in which those with a lower level of education display better understanding of sport in this phase. It is possible to conclude that most parents have the right attitudes and acknowledge the role of sport in the sport initiation phase, but also that there are parents who misinterpret the role of sport and due to this they miseducate and misdirect their children.
