[ENDURANCE (EN): Cycling n=12, Canoe n=12, Swimming n=7, Pentathlon n=9, Cross-Country-Skiing n=7, Triathlon n=9; SITUATIONAL (SIT): Basketball n=6, Volleyball n=8, Handball n=7, Hockey n=4, Tennis n=8, Alpine-Skiing n=1), TECHNICAL AND STRENGTH-POWER (TSP): Track&Field n=19, Sport-Dance n=8, Figure-Skating n=6)].
