The Concept

Both sports and soft skills are covered in three focus modules that build on each other and aim to nurture independence, communication skills, conflict management or organisational talent. The social competencies not only support young people with regard to a possible upcoming job in the sports world; they also empower them to deal with challenges in everyday life and thereby make it easier for them to participate in society.
In the end, young people have the option of using their knowledge as a youth coach with additional intercultural skills in partner organisations, associations or schools.
