(UNI)TED FORCES TO SUPPORT
THE EDUCATION OF (UNI) VERSITY
SPORT COMM(UNI)TY
The (Uni)ted forces to support the education of (Uni)versity sport comm(Uni)ty –
(Uni4s) project started in March 2021 and it focuses on promoting education in
and through sport with special focus on skills development in university sport.
The project aims to create
educational opportunities
for university sport bodies.
Partners’ experiences and
recommendations will be made
available towards the end of the
project in an online publication,
freely available to download
and share. The project seems
to be gaining in importance, as
the need to create conditions
for skills development of
participants in organising
university sport events grows
each day.
Second phase of the Uni4S
project in 2022 was dedicated
to evaluation of the guidebook,
gathering feedback through a
series of activities, and finalizing
the ultimate version of the
guidebook. That material will be
translated into Dutch and Polish
language.
On 27 April, the EUSA Institute
hosted partners of the (Uni)ted
forces to support the education
of (Uni)versity sport comm(Uni)
ty (Uni4S), who met for a
live transnational meeting in
Ljubljana.As the project has been
extended to June 2023 to
allow a greater collection of
feedback and data during sports
competitions, the schedule
and planning of activities
has been discussed as well
as brainstorming about the
possible themes to add in the
final Handbook. At the end
of the project, this Handbook
will be a tool to give useful
information to educate staff of
the university sport associations.In June, the Uni4s project
partners gathered for ameeting in Delft and The
Hague, Netherlands, hosted by
project partner Student Sport
Netherlands on the occasion of
the biggest annual multi-sport
event for students (GNSK)
which took place in Delft and
The Hague.During the meeting project
partners had the opportunity
to share their ideas regarding
logistics in the organization of
university sport tournaments,
to plan and write a complete
notebook.The information and knowledge
shared on the meetings, as well
as the feedback and date gained
through the sports competitions,
will continue to be collected,
sorted, and packed as resource
material Handbook, presenting avaluable outcome of the project,
available for use publicly.The project is led by the
University Sports Association
of Poland, working with another
national university sport body
