Members of the athletes’ entourage also concerned
Educational activities are not only aimed at young athletes. Everyone in their entourage – including coaches, chefs de mission, medical staff and NOC representatives – can participate in the athlete education program and are actively encouraged to do so.
Canadian short track speed skating coach Elizabeth Migneron was pleasantly surprised by the discoveries she made.
“Personally, I learned a lot because you know these programs, but it’s not the same as when you’re here and the people in charge are explaining them to you,” she said. “You also see the enthusiasm and heart that has been put into these initiatives. Just today I installed a new app on my phone for injury prevention. Even a little game makes you think a little more about everything that’s happening in sport in general. Awareness is being raised and I think that’s very good.”
