Learning outcomes
|
The course aims to introduce students to fire sport as a specific component of firefighters' physical and professional training and to develop their practical skills in safely performing selected individual and team disciplines. Students acquire knowledge of the fundamental rules, techniques and organisation of fire sport, safe handling of equipment and technical devices, and injury prevention during practical training. Through practical training in the 100-metre obstacle course, hook ladder climbing, 4 × 100-metre obstacle relay and fire attack, students develop motor, coordination and technical skills, physical preparedness, teamwork and the ability to perform assigned roles. Emphasis is placed on correct and safe technical execution rather than achieving specific performance standards. The course also introduces fundamental methodological approaches to teaching motor and technical skills, identifying and correcting errors, and developing students' ability to prepare, organise and supervise a selected practical activity under professional supervision. It thus connects fire sport with physical and safety education.
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to: 1. Explain the purpose and basic structure of fire sport and distinguish its main individual and team disciplines. 2. Interpret the basic rules and safety requirements relevant to practical training in fire sport disciplines. 3. Safely handle the basic tools and equipment used in practical fire sport training. 4. Perform basic technical and motor tasks used in the 100-metre obstacle course and combine them to an extent appropriate to their level of preparedness. 5. Apply fundamental principles of technique and safety when practising hook ladder climbing on a training tower, within the scope determined by a qualified instructor. 6. Perform an assigned role in the 4 × 100-metre obstacle relay and coordinate their activities with other team members. 7. Perform an assigned role during fire attack training and cooperate with other team members in safely completing the individual stages of the discipline. 8. Select basic physical and conditioning exercises appropriate to the demands of a selected discipline and apply principles of preventing overexertion and injury. 9. Analyse the technical execution of a selected motor or practical task, identify fundamental errors and propose appropriate corrections. 10. Prepare, organise and, under professional supervision, methodically lead a short practical activity focused on acquiring a selected fire sport skill. 11. Reflect on the importance of fire sport for developing physical preparedness, coordination, teamwork and professional skills applicable to firefighting activities.

Prerequisites
|
Successful completion of the course Occupational Safety and Fire Prevention is a prerequisite for enrolment. Students are expected to have a basic understanding of fire protection, occupational safety, injury prevention and the safe handling of technical equipment acquired during their previous studies. They should be able to follow safety and organisational instructions, cooperate during practical activities, and apply basic principles of safe movement and physical training. Previous experience in fire sport disciplines is not required, as the necessary technical and motor skills are progressively developed throughout the course.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Student performance, Dialog, Systematic Observation of Student
Requirements for successful completion of the course: 1. Active participation in the entire intensive practical course comprising 24 teaching hours. 2. Compliance with safety principles, organisational instructions from course instructors and qualified specialists, and rules for the safe handling of fire sport equipment. 3. Successful completion of assigned practical tasks focused on the basic techniques of selected individual and team fire sport disciplines. 4. Demonstration of safe handling of tools and technical equipment, effective teamwork and responsible performance of assigned roles. 5. Preparation and supervised methodological instruction of a selected practical motor or technical activity related to fire sport. 6. Completion of the final practical assessment and course reflection. Practical assessment focuses primarily on correct and safe technical execution, understanding the rules of individual disciplines, handling fire sport equipment, motor coordination and teamwork. Successful completion of the course does not require achieving a specified competition time or other performance standard. The scope of practical performance in individual disciplines is adapted to their technical and physical demands, safety conditions and the student's level of preparedness. For demanding or potentially hazardous elements, assessment may focus on individual technical skills rather than completing the entire competitive discipline. The specific scope is determined by a qualified instructor. The course credit assessment includes a methodological assignment in which students, individually or in pairs, prepare a short practical activity focused on practising a selected element of fire sport. They define its objective, explain the execution technique, identify common errors and safety risks, and lead the activity under professional supervision. Assessment focuses on technical accuracy, clarity of instruction, organisation, safety management and the ability to provide corrective feedback to participants. Course credit is awarded based on active participation, safe and responsible conduct, successful completion of practical tasks and a satisfactory methodological assignment. Individual health and physical capabilities, as well as approved accommodations for students with specific needs, are respected where compatible with the safe performance of the relevant activity. Completion requirements are identical for full-time and part-time students.
