The ReMentoring in Sports project Erasmus+ has 4 countries – partners Elliniko Swmateio Dynamikou Triathlou – Hellenic Powerlifting Association (Greece), Uşak Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports (Turkey), Sport Evolution Alliance (Portugal), Sdruzhenie Levski Sport Za Vsichki (Bulgaria).
The abstract of the project is: The main problem we tackled in this project, which we designed as Uşak Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports, was directed towards the trainers, who have a large share in the development of our athletes. According to studies, coaches are mostly in the X generation, regardless of their branch. Because the coaches in the X generation are more experienced. Experience also plays an important role in coaching. However, these trainers, who train Y and Z generation athletes, cannot keep up with the new generation approaches.
Within the framework of the problem and target analyzes we have planned effective objectives:
– It is aimed to increase the new generation skills of coaches from 4 different countries, in at least 4 different branches, in communication and motivation by 60%.
– It is aimed to increase the basic skills of trainers from 4 different countries, in at least 4 different branches, in the use of technological tools and digital applications in sports by 40%.
– It is aimed to enable trainers and sports managers from 4 different countries to develop innovative applications that will increase the quality of sports.
– It is aimed to increase the transnational cooperation capacity of our institution by 400% in the next two years compared to previous years.
– It is aimed to increase the project preparation and execution skills of our project personnel in our institution at least 2 times.
– It is aimed to implement the “Reverse Mentoring” approaches in the sports activities of our institution and our partner organizations.
