Between October 11 and 14, representatives of the European University Sports Association (EUSA) attended the Certified Leadership Course (CLC) on the topic of Sports for All, carried out by Association For International Sport for All (TAFISA), in cooperation with the Sport Union of Slovenia and Slovenian Olympic Committee.

Over the last ten years, TAFISA has been implementing CLC courses on an international and national level, with the aim to educate sports professionals and organizations in the crucial components of Sports for All. Over several days, seminars were hosted in venues across Ljubljana, Slovenia, including leading experts in the Sports for All movement. Wolfgang Baumann, TAFISA Secretary General; Sarah van Ballek from the International Olympic Committee (IOC); Finn Berggren, President of the Gerlev Physical Education & Sports Academy in Denmark; and Patrik Perosa, President of Slovenian University Sports Association (SUSA) all lead sessions focusing on different aspects of Sports for All.



The course itself focused on crucial areas within Sport for All, including volunteerism, strategic development, marketing and communication, as well as Sport for All within the IOC. As part of the leadership course, participants attended the 12th congress of Sport for All, which took place on October 13 at the Ljubljana Fair. The congress included several quest speakers covering multiple topics in the Sport for All movement.



The course ended on Saturday evening, the course leaders carried out examinations of each participant, before awarding certificates to the successful participants. EUSA Project Assistant, Mr Liam Smith earned his award alongside Mr Marco Corsinovi, colleagues from SUSA, and other course participants.



EUSA would like to thank the leading experts for sharing their knowledge as part of the TASIFA Certified Leadership Course in Sport for All, and we are looking forward to including areas of the discussed topics of the course into EUSA activities.
