We already discussed this topic, lack of money, lack of infrastructure, genera very limited interest for sport, young people prefer study or search for work earlier since they see not many money turning in sport (except hockey or football, but not every kid can be a pro), outdated coaching system resulting from lack of money etc.. etc.. if I were to list all the problems of our sport, I would probably write this post until tomorrow How would you compare Slovakia to the Czech Republic? I mean investments and infrastructure, because it`s known that the Czech Republic has a larger population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always like that even during Czechoslovakia and it is logically the same now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of sports, however, did Slovakia have better sports within Czechoslovakia (until the beginning of the 21st century, the level was still due to the old system) than as an independent country?

The system was different, state controlled, basically all children had easier access to sports and support. but there were 10 million Czechs to 5 million Slovaks, so czechs still had more talented kids in the teams, Maybe water polo or race walking were the only sports were slovaks were always for some reason more dominant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
