In the scientific theory of sport science four major questions can be

considered: (1) What is the function of science? (2) What is the body of

knowledge of a scientific field? (3) What is the appropriate research

methodology? (4) How are research results applied to the practical

field? This publication structures the body of knowledge of German sportscience and focuses on the second question. Answers to the other questions are given implicitly within the articles relating to the specific

subdisciplines of sport science.
