DESCRIPTION

This project addresses the topic of safety for young ski athletes who often fall injured, given the overload of the training process and the great pressure they are subject to. Coaches play a critical role in the lives of young athletes and have the potential to influence their sporting experience. This project therefore aims at training ski coaches in preventing injuries and assuring safety of equipments and trainings.

Objectives

• Protect young ski athletes from health and safety hazards;
• Provide nonformal education trainings for ski coaches in injury prevention, safety checks, risk monitoring.
