  3. By clicking - Submit new content, you go to the step one. At the step one ("Beginning"), it is necessary to select the language in which the article is written (working languages are Russian and English). Select the section of the journal to which your article belongs. If you cannot determine which section your article belongs to, indicate the section "Theory and history of physical culture and sports". In any case, the editorial board of the journal will make necessary adjustments if the article is accepted.

– Next, you need to read the requirements of the journal for the content of the article, check whether the design of the article meets these requirements. Each item must be ticked if the article meets the requirements. Take this stage seriously, because if the article does not meet these requirements, it will be rejected from consideration. It is better to finalize the article at this stage than to get an unpleasant message – "the Article was rejected".

– You can leave a comment for the journal editor. This item is optional.

– Send as – Author and tick – Yes, I consent to the collection and storage of my data in accordance with the privacy note. Before doing this, read the privacy note.

You can do this either by simply dragging and dropping the file, or by clicking the "Upload file" button and selecting it in the window that opens.

Pay attention to the item "Ensuring blind review" – you do not need to activate this item. The editor will prepare your article for a double-blind review when it passes the initial review for compliance with the journal's requirements for direction and presentation.

  1. On the next screen, you will see a confirmation about adding the file.

It is necessary to fill in all the fields in both Russian and English, marked with an asterisk (title and annotation). The rest of the fields are desirable for filling, but at this step are not required.

Please note – it is custom in journal – the name consists of a First name and Patronymic, so you need to enter the First name and Patronymic in the "name" field.

In the field "Organization – place of work" – you need to enter the full name of the organization without FGBOU IN – for example: Chelyabinsk state University, Chelyabinsk, Russia. – the name of the city and country in this field is mandatory.
