As part of Muus Ustar Festival, Chairman of the Children of Asia Games Alumni Union, graduate of the 4th Children of Asia Games, Olympic champion in artistic gymnastics Liliya Akhaimova presented Future Champion Educational Project.
Students of the Olympic Reserve Training College have become first-ever participants of the project. The event took place at Sharin School No. 39 in Yakutsk.
“Future Champion Project is aimed at psychological and behavioral education of young athletes who are going to compete on international level. The issue of psychological wellbeing and personal development of a young athlete is paid little attention. Coaching is very challenging- work of a coach is very responsible and often it is physically impossible to conduct different activities in all areas at once. Such educational projects help athletes to become aware of the situations that can happen on their way to sports heights and learn how to react them correctly,” said Liliya Akhaimova.
In addition within the framework of the project, lecture on media communications in sports took place. Mikhail Guberniev, specialist of the Children of Asia Committee, in his presentation told young athletes about the importance of communication with the media and its features.
To recall, the Children of Asia International Committee established Alumni Union of the Children of Asia Games in 2023. The main goal of the Union is to unite graduates of the Games of different editions in the name of the development of children's and youth sports.
