Abstract: It is strongly viewed that sport and physical activity setting possess potential for athlete's character development. Some others argue that sports may not build character except it is structured with strategies to do so. This study focused on development of character development strategies by coaches for university athletes in Niger Delta of Nigeria. Forty-six sports coaches of universities constitute population and sample for the study. The modified Research and Development design by Borg and Gall was adapted for the study. Two questionnaires, one for identifying character strategies by coaches and the other for matching character traits to strategies identified by coaches were used for data collection...........

Abstract: Stretching is a conventional method applied by athletes to reach the maximum performance at the warm-up stage and to protect them from injuries. Although it is frequentlyapplied by athletes, there is no consensus on the acute effects of stretching exercises on the performance. The aim of this study is to examine the acute effect of static stretching applied to quadriceps and/or hamstring muscle groups on sprint running.
45 males (average (±SD) age 22,9 (±1,3) years; height 178,1 (±6,4) cm; body weight 77,7 (±12) kg) participated in the study. Following a 5-minute of submaximal warm-up run, 3 different stretching protocols (Method I: only 5- minute warm-up run; Method II: 5- minute warm-up run and static hamstring stretching; Method III: 5- minute warm-up run...........

Abstract: In this paper we consider probabilistic competitive balance (CB) models for how football teams perform in English Premier League (EPL) play. While individual game outcomes are measured, they serve to only create the league table, and then over multiple seasons. This is a comprehensive model that attempts to model outcomes to accurately reflect actual league performance. For example, how does the top ranked team perform during a given season...........

Abstract: This paper presents the results obtained by the survey of 207 athlete respondents (handball players) about faith, prayer, the meaning, forgiveness, gratitude, relationship to God and ethical-moral action. All the indicated factors are part of the human aspect of the experience, and in this paper, they have been viewed through a spiritual and religious dimension of a man. Namely, a man is not only a psycho-physical being, he also has a spiritual dimension (Ivančić, 2011; 2016a). The spiritual aspect is connected to virtually every field of the human actions, including the sports one............

Abstract: This study aims to produce a new model for improving the quality of preschool education in Malaysia. To explore issues of education quality, structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationship between theory and model constructs according to the Preschool Management Model (PMM). In this study, the researcher is interested to analyse the causal effect of headmasters' instructional leadership on effective teaching among preschools and subsequently test the hypothesis in order to prove its significance. In addition, the study also establish the correlation of four mediators between headmasters' instructional leadership and effective teaching............
