Under the organisation of Faculty of Kinesiology at University of Zagreb, they success- fully hosted around 380 delegates from 31 countries and provided great intellectual and social interaction for the participants. During the conference 252 papers, written by 579 authors were presented in 10 conference sessions: Adapted Physical Activity and Kinesitherapy; Biology and Medicine of Sport and Exercise; Biomechanics and Mo- tor Control; Physical Education; Kinesiological Recreation; Kinesiology of Top-level Sport; Kinesiology and Social Sciences (Sociology, Psychology, History, Philosophy); Kinesiology in Physical Conditioning – Management of Sport and Research Methodo- logy. Together with three satellite symposiums: Health Kinesiology, New technologies in Physical Education and Science in Dance enable participants to provide a forum for the latest research, theoretical and applicative insights, findings and experiences from the vast field of kinesiology, the science of human movement and exercise. The Conference gave us the expected added value and impetus to further coope- ration between participants and institutions, so we are looking forward for next 9th International Conference on Kinesiology in 2020.

ObLETNICA) Opatija, Hrvaška, 10.–14. maj 2017 Sredi maja 2017 smo se Rado Pišot, Boštjan Šimunič in Saša Pišot udeležili 8. mednarodne znanstvene konference o kineziologiji v Opatiji na Hrvaškem. Kinezio- loška fakulteta Univerze v Zagrebu je uspešno gostila okoli 380 delegatov iz 31 držav in zagotovila prijetno intelektualno in socialno druženje udeležencev. V štirih dneh konference je bilo v desetih sekcijah predstavljeno 252 prispevkov skupno 579 avtor- jev. Posamezne sekcije so bile posvečene naslednjim področjem: Prilagojena telesna dejavnost in kinezioterapija; Biologija, medicina športa in trening; Biomehanika in motorični nadzor; Športna vzgoja; Kineziološka rekreacija; Kineziologija vrhunskega športa; Kineziologija in družboslovje (sociologija, psihologija, zgodovina, filozofija); Kineziologija v fizičnem okolju – Upravljanje v športu in Raziskovalna metodologi- ja. Skupaj s tremi satelitskimi simpoziji: Kineziologija zdravja, Nove tehnologije v športnem izobraževanju in Znanosti v plesu, ki so potekali vzporedno s konferenco, so udeležencem omogočile vpogled v najnovejše raziskave, teoretične in aplikativne vidike, ugotovitve in izkušnje iz obsežnega področja kineziologije, znanosti o gibanju človeka in treningu. Konferenca je prinesla pričakovano dodano vrednost in spodbudo za nadaljnje so- delovanje med udeleženci in institucijami, zato se veselimo naslednje 9. mednarodne konference o kineziologiji, ki bo potekala leta 2020.
