Methods of maintaining motivation for volleyball in the student environment during the war

Abstract

The importance of volleyball in the field of education and health improvement in the context of modern challenges (including military ones) has acquired a new meaning. The purpose of the article is to analyse the methods of supporting motivation to play volleyball among higher education students against the background of the deployment of Russian aggression as a critical factor. To achieve this goal, a number of scientific methods were used: content analysis of scientific literature, comparative analysis, modelling method. A total of 31 items of literature were selected for analysis. The results show that students are motivated to play volleyball by certain motives. It has been proved that in the global dimension and in times of martial law, patriotism and the desire to represent one's country with dignity are relevant, etc. no less relevant are personal motivators related to the realisation of one's own competitive desires. The conclusions emphasise that in the conditions of military tan, motivation can fall, so an important task for the coaching and teaching team is to constantly search for new methods to support students. An important direction for future research is an empirical study of the outlined methods.
