Summary

The purpose of this paper is to clarify the statusof sport in terms of educational pedagogy anddelimitate the components that facilitate thisprocess. Training athletes in order to increasetheir performance potential and to develop theirwhole personality is a psycho-pedagogicalprocess with its own specificity. It is given byits axiological orientation, its action,organization forms, and its extent in time. Thus,we are talking about the theoretical groundingof the instructive-educative process of trainingathletes In the context of a paper studying thedegree of involvement of pedagogy in trainingathletes, we aim at defining the educationalstatus of sports through the perspective of sportspedagogy and the related sciences, directlystudying the phenomena at an adequate level ofgenerality and specificity. Thus, we believe thatsports pedagogy tries to solve (improve) theeducative aspects of training athletes throughprinciples, methodological orientation,contextual situation, etc. Education in generaland education within the sports phenomenon isa complex activity assumed as study object bynumerous scientific fields, among which sportspedagogy, studying education in a specialcontext - that of corporal and sports activities;thus, "education sciences" become "transfersciences" or "intersciences". Through a"structural interdisciplinarity" newepistemological entities emerge - educationsciences. Sports training became an instructiveeducativeprocess, with special physical andpsychic formative valences. Its objective is themaximal valorisation of human skills in order toachieve sports performance, involving highmorale and intellectuals qualities.
