ABSTRACT
The aim of this article is to study strategies and approaches to managing the integration of people with disabilities in the sports environment. The aim was achieved by using a comprehensive approach to questionnaires and interviews, as well as descriptive statistics and correlation analysis of the obtained results. The analysis of the reliability of the measurement tools was carried out using the Pearson's chi-squared test, the root mean square deviation, and the statistical significance of the results p. The results of the study showed that the successful integration of people with physical disabilities in sports depends on a number of factors, including the availability of sports infrastructure, adaptive training programmes, professional training of coaches and social support. Sports clubs that implement inclusive practices and provide opportunities for socialization were found to demonstrate higher rates of satisfaction and engagement among members with disabilities. The conducted research gave grounds to conclude that the integration of people with physical disabilities into the sports environment requires a comprehensive approach that incorporates both material and non-material aspects.
