The study analyzes academic mass sports management models with relevant competitive and progress test schedules. A high priority given to the subject is due to the key role of the applied academic sports in the academic physical education and sport services. It should be mentioned that the progress of academic mass sports is often hampered by the inefficient sport management traditions. Objective of the study was to develop and offer an academic mass sports management model with the mass sports considered as composed of the mission- and function-specific components. The new academic mass sports management model includes process planning, sport activists’ training, and progress test and accounting elements altogether geared to systematize the academic mass sport process. A special priority in the academic mass sports management model design is given to the model efficiency rates and a variety of probabilistic solutions for the model elements and inputs. The model outputs are determined by the probabilistic solutions versus preset (expected) model efficiency rates – to secure a reasonable customization/ interactivity of the model design. Applied for the model efficiency rating purposes were the following criteria: numbers of classified successful competitors; ratios of successful competitors to the total; total training days to the qualified athletes’ number ratio etc. The model piloting experiment showed benefits of the proposed academic mass sports management model.

Keywords: management, model, academic mass sports, competition, fitness, students.
