MOTION Progress Update – November 2021

MOTION project is part of European Union`s Erasmus+ programme and aims to develop a scientifically based training methodology to improve physical condition of youth athletes in a safe manner. The project is led by Baltic Football School and together with Latvian Academy of Sport Education, Siauliai Football Federation, FC Elva, and Dynamo Kyiv looks to foster cross-sectoral cooperation between various institutions, sectors and methods.

During the months of July and August three separate events were held in three different Baltic States cities, Liepaja, Siauliai, and Elva to progress MOTION project. During these meetings practical workshops were held to assess the performance and carry out tests of current situation at project partner clubs in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. During these tests data on posture, foot position, longitudinal size, and operation of movements among other thing were gathered to compare against the role model which was built from the data gathered from Dynamo Kyiv academy players.
