Abstract
Objective of the study was to analyze progress of the adaptive physical education and sports sector in the Belgorod Oblast for 2017-19.
Methods and structure of the study. We made, for the purposes of the study, analyses of the relevant theoretical and practical research materials, legal and regulatory frameworks and statistical reports including the available online databases on the subject.
Results and conclusions. The habitually sporting and physically trained disabled Belgorod Oblast population for the last three years was reported to grow from 13.2% to 16.9% and 19.7% in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. A special contribution to the adaptive physical education and sports service was made by the state Belgorod Oblast Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Center which mission is to lure the disabled people to the adaptive physical education and sport system and facilitate progress of the Paralympic, Deaf Olympic and Special Olympic sports in the region and Russia on the whole.

Background. Presently the Belgorod Oblast authorities take special efforts to develop the local adaptive physical education and sports pursuant to the federal government policies that give a high priority to adaptive physical education and sports services for people with physical or mental health disorders and disabilities.
Objective of the study was to analyze progress of the adaptive physical education and sports sector in the Belgorod Oblast for 2017-19.
Methods and structure of the study. We made, for the purposes of the study, analyses of the rele-
vant theoretical and practical research materials, legal and regulatory frameworks and statistical reports including the available online databases on the subject.
Results and discussion. In our analyses of the progress made by the Belgorod Oblast adaptive physical education and sports developmental policies (as provided by the Belgorod Oblast Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Development Program) and practices, we gave a special attention to a few progress factors of the Program including growth of the 6-18 years old disabled local population com-
mitted for habitual physical education and sports to 69.5% of the total Belgorod Oblast population by 2025 (as of December 31, 2019 this ratio was reported at 54.9%). The coverage of the disabled population by the adaptive physical education and sports service, as reported by formal Report Form 3-AFK, has been clearly on the rise: see Figure 1 hereunder.
The habitually sporting and physically trained disabled Belgorod Oblast population for the last three years was reported to grow from 13.2% to 16.9% and 19.7% in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. A special contribution to the adaptive physical education and sports service was made by the state Belgorod Oblast Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Center which mission is to lure the disabled people to the adaptive physical education and sport system and facilitate progress of the Paralympic, Deaf Olympic and Special Olympic sports in the region and Russia on the whole.
As things now stand, the Belgorod Oblast government reports 6,215 sports facilities operating in the Belgorod Oblast (as per Report Form of 1-FC 2019). Pursuant to the Belgorod Oblast Government Decree dated September 21, 2015 No. 346-pp "On approving the roadmap to step up accessibility of the adaptive physical education and sports facilities and social protection, labor, employment, health, cultural, transportation, trade, housing and communal services for disabled people and the relevant urban
planning policies", the Belgorod Oblast agencies adapted, as of the early 2020, 35 sports facilities in 17 municipalities for adaptive physical education and sports service; with 5 more facilities slated for adaptation in 2020. Furthermore, 9 Belgorod Oblast municipalities have launched special physical education and sport services for disabled people at 29 adapted training bases for disadvantaged health groups.
A non-governmental Deaf, Blind, Physically Impaired and Mentally Retarded Sports Federation was established in the Belgorod Oblast in 2017. The Federation manages four sports disciplines in the Belgorod Oblast as stated by its Charter, and presently its membership is reported at 435 people. The priority policies of the Federation are to lure the disabled people in habitual physical education and sports trainings and advance the local elite adaptive sports including Paralympic, Deaflympic and Special Olympic sports disciplines. The local Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Center serves both children and adults with hearing, visional and musculoskeletal disorders and mental retardations. The Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Center employs certified coaches including the Belgorod State National Research University graduates with Adaptive Physical Education and Sports and Physical Rehabilitation degrees: see Table 1 hereunder.
Conclusion. The local disabled and disadvan-taged health groups engaged in habitual adaptive physical education and sport services were reported to grow by 6.5% (to 19.7%) for the last three years, with the key contribution to the progress made by the state Belgorod Oblast Adaptive Physical Education and Sports Center and non-governmental Deaf, Blind, Physically Impaired and Mentally Retarded Sports Federation.
