ReMentoring in Sport

About Reverse Mentoring in Sports for Next Generation's Sporting Success

The main problem we tackle in the Rementoring in Sport project, which we designed as Uşak Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports, is 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.

This is 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.

The main aims of the this project are:

  • Increase the new generation skills of coaches from 4 different countries, in at least 4 different branches, in communication and motivation by 60%
  • 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
  • Increase the transnational cooperation capacity of our institution by 400% in the next two years compared to previous years
  • Increase the project preparation and execution skills of our project personnel in our institution at least 2 times
  • Implement the “Reverse Mentoring” approaches in the sports activities of our institution and our partner organizations

The most important activities we are going to develop to achieve these goals will be:

  • Reverse Mentoring Trainer Training | 7 days | Turkey | 5 trainers from each country will participate in this activity
  • Next Generation Coaching Skills Training | 5 days | Portugal | 5 trainers from each country will participate in this activity
  • Job Shadowing of Good Practices in Coaching | 5 days | Bulgaria | 5 coaches from each country
  • European Week of Sports Events | One week per country
