| Abstract: |
Relevance of research. An aspiration to manage bullying and harassment in
sport is a part of wider international issues there are solved ethics and
integration of such problems as usage of doping, manipulation of competition,
safety of events and fair game organization (Mountjoy et al, 2015; Maffulli,
2007; Brackenridge et al, 2011; Kainz, 2015; etc.). The behavior of sport?s
leaders and even athletes themselves, such as ignoring, not reacting, and
resisting of bullying and harassment prevention, is a challenge while trying
to implement bullying and harassment management instruments in sport. The
refuse to recognize prevention of bullying and harassment supports the root
causes of coercion (Mountjoy et al., 2016). This is an important reason
primary concentrate on analyses of existing management instruments of bullying
and harassment.Object of research is management instruments of bullying and
harassment in sport.Purpose of the research is to make analyses of management
instruments of bullying and harassment comparing application of prevention
models in sport.Methods of research were scientific research analyses of
bullying and harassment prevention programs and their application.Research
results. Analyses and comparison of such prevention programs as Olweus
Bullying Prevention, KiVa Anti-bullying, Positive behavior support (SW-PBS),
Athletic coach-delivered (ARA/SV) prevention, harassment programs called ?Take
care?, and ?Control program on study skills?, showed that just some of these
programs are applied to sport. Research of prevention programs application
showed that interactive prevention applying contemporary technologies such as
internet, smart phone aps, etc., could be more effective prevention than
personal prevention using personal meetings with participant of bullying and
harassment prevention. Prevention programs of bullying and harassment should
be adjusted separately to the bystanders, participants and victims including
differences of gender perception. An important orientation is towards the
perpetrator but not to the victim, since only the taken responsibility could
help to stop the actions of antisocial behavior. The leaders of sport
organizations must initiate and implement the management instruments of
bullying and harassment. They supposed to provide training and constructive
beliefs to take responsibility of the own behavior and harmoniously improve
the changing culture of sport organization. Thus, the management instruments
of bullying and harassment should include reviews of law enforcement
strategies, culturally tailored training programs, and implement policy and
procedures to sport community.Acknowledgement. This research is funded by the
