Sample Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur Sport Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur Sport exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1According to the Superkompensationsmodell used in Trainingslehre, what happens to an athlete's performance capacity in the recovery period after an adequately dosed training stimulus?
A.It temporarily rises above the pre-training baseline, provided the recovery phase is long enough, before gradually returning toward baseline if no further stimulus follows
B.It stays exactly at the pre-training baseline until the very next session
C.It drops permanently below the pre-training baseline
D.It rises only during the training session itself and falls back immediately afterward
Explanation: The Superkompensationsmodell (based on work by Yakovlev) describes an adequately dosed training stimulus followed by sufficient recovery leading to an overshoot above the original performance level; if the next stimulus is timed to hit this elevated phase, fitness increases cumulatively.
2Which basic Trainingsprinzip explains why a single isolated workout produces almost no lasting fitness gain, and why regular, continued training is necessary?
A.Prinzip der Wiederholung und Kontinuität
B.Prinzip der Individualität
C.Prinzip der optimalen Relation von Belastung und Erholung
D.Prinzip der ansteigenden Belastung
Explanation: The Prinzip der Wiederholung und Kontinuität states that training adaptations only accumulate through regularly repeated stimuli over time; a one-off session triggers a transient response that fades without continuation.
3A training plan that steadily raises the weight lifted every few weeks, once the body has adapted to the previous load, is applying which Trainingsprinzip?
A.Prinzip der progressiven Belastungssteigerung
B.Prinzip der variierenden Belastung
C.Prinzip der Individualität
D.Prinzip der Wiederholung und Kontinuität
Explanation: The Prinzip der progressiven Belastungssteigerung (progressive overload) requires the training stimulus to increase over time — in volume, intensity or complexity — once the body has adapted, otherwise no further improvement occurs.
4What distinguishes the (extensive) Intervallmethode from the Dauermethode in endurance training?
A.The Intervallmethode alternates work phases with planned, incomplete ('lohnende') recovery breaks, while the Dauermethode is one continuous, unbroken effort
B.The Intervallmethode always uses higher intensity than any form of the Dauermethode
C.The Dauermethode is only used for strength training, never for endurance
D.The Intervallmethode requires complete rest to full recovery between every repetition
Explanation: The Intervallmethode structures training as repeated load phases separated by planned incomplete recovery (a 'lohnende Pause' that ends before full recovery), whereas the Dauermethode is performed as a single continuous effort without breaks.
5In Trainingslehre, the Wiederholungsmethode (repetition method) is best characterised by which combination of features?
A.Near-maximal to maximal intensity efforts with complete recovery between repetitions, used to develop speed or maximal strength
B.Low-to-moderate, constant intensity sustained without interruption over a long duration
C.Short work bouts separated by deliberately incomplete recovery to accumulate fatigue
D.Circuit-style stations performed back-to-back with almost no rest between exercises
Explanation: The Wiederholungsmethode uses near-maximal or maximal intensity with full recovery between repetitions so that each repetition can be performed at high quality — it is typically used to develop maximal strength or speed rather than endurance.
6Kraftausdauer (strength endurance) is defined in Trainingslehre as the ability to...
A.resist fatigue of the neuromuscular system during prolonged or frequently repeated submaximal force output
B.produce the single highest possible force output in one maximal effort
C.accelerate a light resistance as fast as possible from a standing start
D.hold a joint through its full physiological range of motion
Explanation: Kraftausdauer describes the capacity to sustain repeated or prolonged submaximal muscular contractions without a significant drop in force output, combining elements of strength and endurance.
7'Aerobe Ausdauer' describes endurance performance that is sustained mainly through...
A.energy production using oxygen to oxidise carbohydrates and fats
B.energy production that occurs entirely without oxygen via lactic-acid glycolysis
C.the breakdown of stored phosphocreatine (ATP-CP) alone
D.purely neural adaptation with no metabolic component
Explanation: Aerobic endurance relies on oxidative metabolism — using oxygen to break down carbohydrates and fats for ATP — and can be sustained over long durations at moderate intensities.
8Which energy-supply system dominates during the first few seconds of an all-out maximal effort, such as a sprint start, before glycolysis takes over?
A.The phosphocreatine (ATP-CP / Kreatinphosphat) system
B.Aerobic oxidation of fats
C.Aerobic oxidation of carbohydrates
D.Anaerobic-lactic glycolysis
Explanation: Stored ATP and phosphocreatine in the muscle provide immediately available energy without oxygen and without producing lactate, but these stores are very limited and are exhausted within roughly the first several seconds of maximal effort.
9Which pair of organisations sets and enforces the international list of banned substances and methods in competitive sport, with a German national body implementing anti-doping rules domestically?
A.WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) internationally, and NADA (Nationale Anti-Doping Agentur) in Germany
B.Only the International Olympic Committee, with no national-level body involved
C.Only the Deutscher Olympischer Sportbund (DOSB), with no international coordinating body
D.Only individual sport federations acting independently with no shared international list
Explanation: WADA publishes and updates the international Prohibited List and coordinates global anti-doping policy; in Germany, NADA implements testing, education and sanctions in line with the WADA Code.
10Why do many current Trainingslehre recommendations advise against long, static stretching immediately before an explosive activity such as a sprint or jump?
A.It can temporarily reduce muscle stiffness and reflex activity, which may slightly impair maximal force and power output right afterward
B.It permanently shortens the muscle-tendon unit within minutes
C.It has been shown to increase injury risk during the stretch itself in every case
D.It raises core body temperature so much that overheating becomes likely
Explanation: Prolonged static stretching just before explosive efforts can transiently reduce musculotendinous stiffness and neural excitability, which several studies link to small short-term reductions in maximal force or jump/sprint performance — hence dynamic warm-ups are usually preferred immediately before such activities.

About the Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur Sport Exam

Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur Sport is the state Sport examination for the Allgemeine Hochschulreife, taken as a compulsory Wahlpflichtfach across the Qualifikationsphase and optionally as one of the five Abiturprüfungsfächer under the Oberstufenverordnung. Unlike academic subjects assigned to an Aufgabenfeld, Sport stands outside the three Aufgabenfelder (§13 Abs. 3) and, when examined as a Prüfungsfach, is assessed through a besondere Fachprüfung that combines a sportpraktischer Teil (performance) with a schriftlicher or mündlicher Teil on Sporttheorie (§20 Abs. 4). Its content follows the Fachlehrplan Sport Gymnasium (Stand 01.08.2022): eight Bewegungsfelder available in Sjg. 11/12 — Spielen, Laufen/Springen/Werfen, Turnerisches Bewegen, Fitness fördern, Rhythmisches Bewegen/Tanzen/Gestalten, Kämpfen, Fahren/Rollen/Gleiten and Bewegen im Wasser — of which students choose four for their halbjährige Kurse. This free bank of 100 original multiple-choice questions is an English-language study adaptation of the underlying Sporttheorie (Trainingslehre, Bewegungslehre, Sportbiologie, Sportpsychologie, Sportsoziologie and safety knowledge) drawn from all eight Bewegungsfelder. It is not a simulation of the official exam, which also requires a hands-on sportpraktischer Teil this bank cannot test.

Exam sponsor: Ministerium für Bildung des Landes Sachsen-Anhalt (MB), supported by the Landesinstitut für Schulqualität und Lehrerbildung (LISA) and the Landesschulamt. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

Sport is a Wahlpflichtfach not assigned to any Aufgabenfeld (§13 Abs. 3 Oberstufenverordnung) that students must take continuously across all four Kurshalbjahre of the Qualifikationsphase, choosing four halbjährige Kurse from the eight Bewegungsfelder the Fachlehrplan offers at Sjg. 11/12: Spielen; Laufen, Springen, Werfen; Turnerisches Bewegen; Fitness fördern; Rhythmisches Bewegen, Tanzen, Gestalten; Kämpfen; Fahren, Rollen, Gleiten; and Bewegen im Wasser. If Sport is chosen as one of the five Abiturprüfungsfächer at grundlegendem Anforderungsniveau, §20 Abs. 4 replaces the standard written Klausur with a besondere Fachprüfung containing both a sportpraktischer Teil and a schriftlicher Teil; if Sport is the fifth (oral) Prüfungsfach, it is examined mündlich. This 100-question bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation of the Sporttheorie (Grundlegende Wissensbestände) only — it does not reproduce the sportpraktischer Teil, the German-language written Teil, or the oral examination.

Time Limit

The sportpraktischer Teil is completed ahead of the main written-exam window — in the 2026 session it was finished by 9 April 2026. Bearbeitungszeiten for the schriftlicher or mündlicher Teil of the besondere Fachprüfung are set by the annually re-issued RdErl. 'Vorbereitung und Durchführung der Abiturprüfung' and vary by Anforderungsniveau; consult the current Erlass through your school or the Bildungsserver for the exact minutes in a given year. Where Sport is the oral fifth Prüfungsfach, mündliche Prüfungen in the 2026 session began 11 May 2026, following the Vorgaben zur Vorbereitung, Durchführung und Bewertung mündlicher Abiturprüfungen (Landesschulamt Sachsen-Anhalt).

Passing Score

Subject performance is reported on the 0–15 Punkte scale (Note 1 = 15–13 Punkte, Note 6 = 0 Punkte). The Gesamtqualifikation requires at least 200 of a possible 600 Punkte in Block I from the Kurshalbjahresergebnisse (§38 Oberstufenverordnung) and at least 100 of a possible 300 Punkte in Block II from the five Prüfungsfächer/-elemente in vierfacher Wertung (§39). Where Sport is examined via the besondere Fachprüfung under §20 Abs. 4, the sportpraktischer and schriftlicher Teil are combined into a single Fachprüfungsergebnis before being weighted into Block II; where Sport is chosen but a student holds an amtsärztliches Attest exempting them from the Belegungspflicht, §16 Abs. 4 substitutes a sporttheoretische Belegarbeit that is graded but explicitly cannot be counted toward the Gesamtqualifikation.

Exam / Certification Fees

No exam fee for regular enrolled school candidates; the Abitur is a state school examination in Sachsen-Anhalt. External and Nichtschüler routes are handled by the Landesschulamt and do not carry a published Sport-specific fee.

Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur Sport: Suggested Study Strategy

1Revise by Bewegungsfeld, not by 'sport' in general: build a one-page fact sheet per Bewegungsfeld you actually studied (Grundlegende Wissensbestände, key safety rules, key vocabulary) since your real Prüfung only draws on the four Kurse you completed.
2Anchor Trainingslehre with the vocabulary triangle Reiz → Erholung → Superkompensation, and be able to name and distinguish the Dauer-, Intervall- and Wiederholungsmethode by their recovery pattern, not just their name.
3Keep safety and legal knowledge razor-sharp: Kämpfen's Vollkontakt/Würgetechniken ban, Notwehr under §32 StGB, and Bewegen im Wasser's Bade- und Hygieneregeln and Rettungstechniken are exactly the kind of concrete, testable facts examiners favour.
4Practise biomechanical and physiological reasoning, not just recall — e.g. explain why tucking reduces the moment of inertia and speeds rotation in Turnen, or why a horizontal Wasserlage reduces resistance in Schwimmen.
5Learn the coordinative and conditional-ability vocabulary (Meinel/Schnabel's koordinative Fähigkeiten; Maximalkraft/Schnellkraft/Kraftausdauer) precisely, since exam distractors are built from these near-synonym mix-ups.
6If Sport is one of your Prüfungsfächer, separately prepare the sportpraktischer Teil — this bank only covers the theory knowledge and cannot substitute for practising and refining your actual performance in your chosen Sportarten.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the official Sachsen-Anhalt Sport Abitur exam multiple-choice?

No. Candidates who choose Sport as a Prüfungsfach sit a besondere Fachprüfung under §20 Abs. 4 Oberstufenverordnung, combining a hands-on sportpraktischer Teil with a written or oral Sporttheorie Teil. This bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation of the theory knowledge only, for learning and checking the underlying content — it is not a simulation of the official format and cannot test the practical/performance component at all.

Why are the questions in English when the exam is in German?

This bank is a study aid for building factual command of the Fachlehrplan's Sporttheorie content in English. German terms — Bewegungsfeld, Trainingsprinzip, Kraftausdauer, Notwehr and so on — are preserved exactly as used in the curriculum, so you can carry the vocabulary straight into German-language revision.

Which content does the exam cover?

The Fachlehrplan Sport Gymnasium (Stand 01.08.2022) offers eight Bewegungsfelder in Sjg. 11/12 — Spielen; Laufen, Springen, Werfen; Turnerisches Bewegen; Fitness fördern; Rhythmisches Bewegen, Tanzen, Gestalten; Kämpfen; Fahren, Rollen, Gleiten; and Bewegen im Wasser — of which each student completes four as halbjährige Kurse. This bank draws MCQs from the Grundlegende Wissensbestände (theory knowledge) of all eight, since a school's Prüfungsfach content depends on the individual student's chosen Kurse.

How is Sport actually examined if I choose it as a Prüfungsfach?

If Sport is one of your third or fourth (written, grundlegendes Anforderungsniveau) Prüfungsfächer, §20 Abs. 4 Oberstufenverordnung replaces the normal written Klausur with a besondere Fachprüfung: a sportpraktischer Teil plus a schriftlicher Teil on Sporttheorie, combined into one result. If Sport is your fifth Prüfungsfach, it is examined mündlich (orally) instead.

Is Sport compulsory in the Sachsen-Anhalt Abitur?

Sport is a Wahlpflichtfach that must be taken continuously across all four Kurshalbjahre of the Qualifikationsphase (Anlage 2 Oberstufenverordnung), though unlike Deutsch, Mathematik or Geschichte it is not assigned to any of the three Aufgabenfelder (§13 Abs. 3). Students with an amtsärztliches Attest are exempt from the practical Belegungspflicht and instead complete a graded sporttheoretische Belegarbeit under §16 Abs. 4, which cannot be counted toward the Gesamtqualifikation.

When was the practical and exam schedule in 2026?

In the 2026 session, the sportpraktischer Teil for Sport (alongside Musik and Kunst) was required to be completed by 9 April 2026, ahead of the main written-exam window that ran from mid-April to early May. Where Sport was taken as the oral fifth Prüfungsfach, mündliche Prüfungen began 11 May 2026.

Is there an exam fee?

No. The Abitur is a state school examination in Sachsen-Anhalt and regular enrolled school candidates pay no fee. Nichtschüler and second-chance routes are administered by the Landesschulamt and have no published Sport-specific fee.
