Artificial Intelligence in elite sports training and prospects for integration into school sports

Introduction: artificial intelligence (AI) is a constant presence in elite sports training today, enabling performance analysis, personalized training, and injury prevention. The transfer of these innovative technologies to school sports, although still at an early and insufficiently documented stage, has started to gain visibility. Objective: the article aims to analyze the presence of artificial intelligence in elite sports training and explore the prospects for integrating these technologies into school sports. Methodology: A systematic review of recent literature from the main scientific databases was conducted, together with a detailed analysis of practical applications of artificial intelligence in elite sports training. Results: AI use in elite sports is reflected in advanced systems for performance analysis and optimization. Although its implementation in school sports is currently limited by high costs and insufficient infrastructure, real opportunities exist for integrating similar technological solutions tailored to the specific needs and possibilities of schools. Discussion: results suggest a significant potential for transferring AI technologies to school sports, provided that clear educational policies and investments are implemented. Conclusions: the gradual and adapted integration of artificial intelligence in school sports can significantly modernize physical education and enhance the quality of sports training in schools.
