Youth Training Camp Summary
The Youth training camp of our O4All "Orienteering for All - Improving high quality learning opportunities for volunteers of orienteering events" ERASMUS+ project was realized between July 05-09, 2023. 29 adult volunteers and 42 young people participated in the camp held in and around Sveti Martin, Croatia.
Different types of training sessions and competitions were organized every day in the camp, where the adult Volunteers could acquire and practice the necessary knowledge (such as course planning and setting, the use of OCAD software, operation of the SI system, Build and run the start and finish (areas), operating the time measurement system, reading the SI cards, making the results and publishing it) under the guidance of experienced professionals. The many different exercises, the many enthusiastic volunteers with different levels of knowledge in the different areas, and the presence of experts who were available during the entire camp provided a good opportunity to apply and test different learning methods. The joint work and the ensuring of the inter-teams communication and task division between the Croatian and Hungarian teams was a special challenge and a valuable experience.
The young people participating in the programs were able to expand their orientation-, map reading- and other (e.g. language-, communication-, cultural-) skills and knowledge, which they can use not only in orienteering but also in everyday life.
In addition to the orienteering events, we also held two workshops, one of which was about course planning and setting, and the other one where the participants could get an insight into the financing issues related to orienteering competitions. The trip to Trakošćan and the castle visit, the afternoon baths and evening volleyball games added colour to the already varied and very enjoyable program.
The location, the high-quality programs and the cheerful company ensured a good atmosphere, as it seems on the pictures. Thank you for the support of the Erasmus+ program, because without it, all of this would not have been possible!
