The further goal of studying the subject is the upbringing, education and training of students for conscious, active and successful engagement in sports and deepening knowledge about the importance of sports in society.

In addition to education and research, as a basic mission, it is necessary to direct students to cooperation with the community, to serve the community, but also to engage in the community on the topic of sports.
