Dynamics of awarding sports titles in kayaking and canoeing in the regions of the Russian Federation
The Unified All-Russian Sports Classification is a traditional and reliable means of objective assessment of the work of specialists and organizations involved in the training of athletes. Based on the analysis of documentary sources, we have obtained statistical data that allow us to identify the most effective regional training systems for paddlers in kayaks and canoes of our country. The result of the work done was data reflecting the dynamics of awarding honorary and sports titles. The scientific novelty of the presented data lies in the absence of such statistics for the latest period of the history of kayaking and canoeing in the Russian Federation, and the data for the Volgograd region are published for the first time. The practical significance of the research results lies in the presentation of information that allows to assess the effectiveness of the training of the sports reserve in kayaking and canoeing, the effectiveness of the parallel scoring system in various regions of the Russian Federation, as well as to determine the prospects for the development of the sports career during the transition of athletes-rowers to the stages of sports improvement or higher sportsmanship.
