ENThe memory is treated as the harmony of recollection and commemoration in the current paradigms of science while the memory archive and historical cultural heritage is approached from the point of view of recollection. The main forms of the actualization and transfer of sport significance in which sport cultural memory in Northern Lithuania is constructed and emphasized are sport museums of the region (museums of Šiauliai, Joniškis), scientific publications of sport history by several authors (J. Misevičius, N. Veršinskienė, R. Tamulaitienė, S. Norkus, Ž. Kavaliauskaitė, E. Vitkus, L. Karaliūnas). These two forms are complemented by published and not published recollections of sport activities. The research of sport memory and its analysis showed that the changes of physical education and sport influenced during the periods of political, economic and social-cultural changes are most emphasized in published and not published recollections. After the restitution of independence in 1990 from the point of view of the forms of the actualization and transfer of sport significance the attitudes of value for the sport community are distinctly expressed in the decision to participate in team sports of the Soviet Union and appeared in the following categories "do not participate", "participate", "doubts" related to the decision and choice because of the favourite job, activities and personal experience.The most important category is "do not participate" consisting of the following subcategories "public spirit", "patriotism", "efforts of will", "moral attitudes" which propositions are expressed in the decision to represent team sports of Lithuania. Besides, financial, materialistic, result seeking, mastership maintaining motives of the further sport career highlighted in the category "participate" were important and significant for sportsmen. The category "doubts" related to the aim, seeking of results in sport, fortune and career reveals many sportsmen's doubts about the meaning and succession opportunities of the further sport life. Professional career, sport career, qualification and competence showing striving and importance to realize oneself and improve professionally express changes of the period sport activities and professional career opportunities.
