“…Likewise, spirituality/religiosity and sports have connections with various aspects of human life. Sport can develop a religious attitude based on mutual respect and can overcome recognized differences [2].

“…The physical aspects of young people, such as strength, endurance, dexterity, precision, and the ability to analyse situations are the foci of development in national sports [17]. Religious values, practices, and rituals often appear in the context of sports [2,18].

“…Furthermore, Lodewyk, Lu, and Kentel stated that students' spiritual development can be promoted through participation in physical activities, games, traditional culture, and music to help be more relaxed, creative, motivated, able to interact with each other [10]. Consistent with that opinion, Jirásek focuses on using the concept of spiritual health in physical education by essentially characterising the existence, relationships, reality and purpose of life, and transfer [2]. There are some practical ways to implement spirituality in health and physical education such as breaking down the explanation of different movements in a physical activity, describing acts of heroism in the world of sports, talking about the benefits of a sport, motivating students to do kind acts during physical activities, and discussing issues that will touch the heart of students to do good to others [8].…”

today, spiritual development through physical education is an unthinkable way to strengthen a harmonious society capable of contributing to the nation's character. Hence, this study aims to examine the effect of three types of physical education programs on children's religiosity and spirituality. For this study, 15 physical education teachers and 881 fourth to sixth-grade children participated in the study. The physical education programs were implemented over in the second semester of the 2015-2016 academic year. The data used was collected applying the 37 items of Religiosity and Spirituality Scale for Youth (RaSSY) (Hernandez, 2011) before and after of the program. Two-and one-way analyses of variance (ANOVA) and paired sample t-tests were used to compare the three groups. There was a significant interaction between the test and groups of mean religiosity and spirituality scores. The analysis also found a significant increase in the mean of these in the first and third groups. The planned, executed, and measured special physical education program in the first and third groups is an effective way to improve the religiosity and spirituality of the children.

Towards a Theory of Surfing Expansion: The Beginnings of Surfing in Spain as a Case Study.

Surfing is today a popular sport which has been studied from many disciplines. Surfing expanded from the U.S. to the rest of the world. With respect to the history of (sport) surfing, there were at least two fundamental topics which need to be explored and developed: I) Explore the genesis of surfing in Europe. II) Develop a theoretical framework on the history of surfing expansion since this field has remained almost neglected up until now. This article is the first attempt to develop a theoretical framework of surfing expansion. In doing so, it will be focused on the genesis of surfing in Europe in general, but concretely on Spain as a case study. The first step was to examine the origins of surfing and its expansion before arriving to Spain (Australia, Peru, Britain, France and Portugal). Later on, it was needed to determine who were the pioneers in Spain, and how, when and where they "discovered" surfing, and thus how, when and where they obtained or made their surfboards. After comparing all the information, it has been possible to formulate a theoretical framework and make a classification according to four types or patterns of surfing genesis, based on the various forms of foreign influence: 1) endogenous genesis (no foreign influence); 2) quasi-endogenous (foreign influence through massmedia, yet pioneers made their own surfboards); 3) exogenous (surfing began as a result of direct contact with foreigners); 4) mixed.Key words: history; surfing; pioneers; foreigners; mass-media; Spain. AbstractCorrespondence/correspondencia: Daniel Esparza Palacky University in Olomouc, Czech Republic Email: daniel.esparza@upol.cz El surf es en la actualidad un deporte estudiado desde muy diversas disciplinas. El surf se expandió desde EEUU al resto del mundo. Con respecto a la historia del surf (y del deporte) hay al menos dos aspectos fundamentales que necesitan ser explorados y trabajados: I) Explorar la génesis del surf en Europa; II) Iniciar la creación de un marco teórico sobre la expansión del surf, aspecto éste abandonado hasta el momento. Este artículo se trata del primer intento que se propone tal reto. Así, este trabajo se enfoca en la génesis del surf en Europa en general, y concretamente España como estudio de caso. El primer paso fue examinar los orígenes el surf y su expansión antes de llegar a España (Australia, Peru, Gran Brataña, Francia y Portugal). Posteriormente, se determina quiénes fueron los pioneros en España, y cómo, dónde y cuándo "descubrieron" el surf, y por tanto, cómo , dónde y cuán-do consiguieron o hicieron sus tablas de surf. Una vez comparada toda la información, ha sido posible formular un marco teórico y realizar una clasificación de acuerdo a cuatro tipos de modelo de géne-sis, basado en los diferentes grados de influencia extranjera: 1) génesis endógena (sin influencia extranjera); 2) quasi-endógena (influencia extranjera a través de los mass-media, pero los pioneros se hacen sus tablas); 3) exógena (los extranjeros influyen directamente en el inicio del surf); 4) mixta.
