DURING THE PROJECT MULTIPLIER SPORT EVENTS IN BOTH COUNTRIES WERE PRESENTED THE TRAINING PROGRAM AND PROTOCOLAMONG MORE THEN 90 YOUNG PEOPLE.

The general conclusions which could be made based on the project activities are as follow:

  1. Creating and promoting a dual career for the athletes is critically important not only for the sport industry but
    also for the labour and the whole society. Balance is the key to success in life. The athletes need to find the right
    balance between training efforts and learning but also between the entrance at the labour market and training,
    which is a consistently challenging phenomenon. 
  2. Investigating national, European sports and dual-career programs it appears that governments and the sports
    industry are limited to provide help and support toward high sports performance and don’t cover the lack of
    athletes’ education which is necessary for the life after career. 
  3. It is obvious that there is a grey zone in the supporting efforts that operate by the government, sports sector,
    educational institutions, market forces and social structures.  
  4. Today, this ever-increasing sports competition, the demand to over-the-top performance and the growing
    economic activity, have dramatically increased the “life obligations” of elite athletes. 
  5. Consequently, the balance between training and living has been disturbed. Human should seriously consider the
    fact that sport seems to no longer serve the man, but the man be used by sport as part of the global spectacle, the
    supreme performance, the technology, the commercialization. 
  6. In the end, it might not just be worth only exploring the dual-career offerings and its inclusion in athletes’ sports
    career. Perhaps it is now more imperative than ever, the process of sport should be further explored, and then be
    redesigned, be redefined and re-based on its true human nature and value rather than superman’s reality.
