adminSport organizations and clubs all over Europe play a crucial role in encouraging and engaging people to get physically active. The sport sector, especially on the local level, relies heavily on volunteers in sports to engage more people in doing sports. At the beginning of the project, all participating partners did a comprehensive desk and field research to find out more about volunteering in their own countries. Consequently, the consortium developed an interactive training material to enhance volunteering in sports.
The following topics are tackled in the training module:
– Introduction to the project and Quality Management Systems in civil society/sport sector
– Teamwork, Communication, Leadership and presentation skills
– Volunteer Management Cycle and its main phases
– Management of volunteers in the setting of sports events + training module evaluation
The training material was then tested and evaluated by sports managers and volunteers in the participating countries Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Poland, Serbia, and Spain. The evaluation results from the training participants of all countries were processed and integrated into the final training toolkit and curriculum
