Abstract: The paper aims at analysing Croatian professional sport and the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on it. Football was taken as a model for other team sports because of the share of professional sports clubs in the Republic of Croatia in football. In addition, the legal framework set in football may apply to other sports for successfully developing a similar pattern.

Stopping competitions and the training process was a shock that sports organizations had to deal with. Financial problems forced them to rethink the situation. In Slovakia, this became critical. This is why we started to research this issue to provide an answer to the research question: What are the actual consequences of government measures on the sports industry? A survey was conducted including two questionnaires made available between the pandemic waves. The first questionnaire was designed for athletes and sports professionals (N = 1040). The second addressed sports organizations (N = 626). Questionnaires were accessible via sports organizations’ portals. The ban on organizing mass sports events affected this industry. More than 80% of respondents had an experience of having to cancel a competition or training activity. This had an impact on their income as well as their future activities. We cooperate with government institutions and sports associations in Slovakia, so the results were provided to government officials. However, due to political changes accompanied by changes in the ministries responsible for the sports industry in Slovakia, it is relevant to summarize the research results in their present form. In this way they can serve as background for future sports policies.

COVID-19 (coronavirus) was discovered at the end of 2019 and became a global pandemic in 2020. To fight the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous countries around the world have imposed different social restrictions in the hopes of slowing the virus's spread. For more than two years, humanity has been exposed to stress, which has resulted in a significant change in human lives and a negative impact on people's health due to the need for a completely different adjustment to everyday life. Every new, unfamiliar scenario triggers tension, which is a natural response to a threat. All of this resulted in people being confined to their houses, prevented them from seeing loved ones or taking care of daily tasks, decreased their mobility, forced them to work from home, and completely altered their daily routines. The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic has created a global social threat, both economic and medical, with significant lifestyle changes. Part of the strategy to limit the spread of the virus was social isolation, which is incompatible with the human need for physical activity. The COVID-19 pandemic has stopped sport and its development in a significantly different way than any known pandemic so far. People whose main occupation is sports were especially affected. The fight against the spread of COVID19 has resulted in the closure of sports clubs, facilities, gyms, stadiums, swimming pools, dance and fitness studios, physical therapy centers, parks and playgrounds. A significant number of studies were conducted during the pandemic in order to determine the impact of the pandemic on various aspects of social life, precisely because of the situation that was imposed on the entire society and because of the change in the format of everyday life that deviated from the usual. Physical activity is one of them. This work aims to review those works by systematizing the goals, contents and results of those researches, in order to determine how much they were represented and what conclusions were reached based on them.
