Sažetak
The development of sport related symbolic knowledge acquisition was researched on the sample of 318 urban elementary school pupils, boys and girls aged 10 to 15 years. The subjects were given 40-items paper-and-pencil knowledge test concerning history, official rules, organisation, competitions and competitors, etc., of soccer, volleyball, handball and basketball. The analysis of variance was done with gender and age as independent variables. The results show that both, as well as interaction of gender and age, have significant effect on knowledge acquisition. The results are not simple, and do not follow usual gender stereotypes. Female students are better informed in volleyball in all grades, exceed male result in soccer in 8th grade, and are almost equal with boys in basketball in the 8th grade. It seams that with age, girls achieve more sport related symbolic knowledge than boys, specially in most popular sports.
