We were delighted to present our Erasmus+ project SAFE AND STRONG – Empowering Athletes, Coaches and Parents with Knowledge on Healthy Body Composition Regulation on June 22, 2024, at the Judo Festival in Poreč, organized by the European Judo Union. We are proud that Judo Club Zmajčki is the project coordinator.
The project addresses harmful weight loss practices among young judo athletes, as we aim to improve conditions for a healthy, safe, and sustainable sporting journey for our young athletes. Together with partners from Croatia, and Italy, we want to provide coaches, parents, and athletes with knowledge, tools, and guidelines for responsible Body Weight Regulation.
SAFE AND STRONG contributes to creating a safe, supportive, and ethical judo environment, enhancing athletes’ well-being, performance, and long-term development.
