New Athlete365 E-Learning Courses for Young Athletes

The International Olympic Committee has launched four new e-learning modules for young athletes. These have been published ahead of next year’s Youth Olympic Games, but all young athletes and their coaches/support crew are encouraged to complete them.

The four modules are staying mentally fit, safeguarding, preventing competition manipulation, and anti-doping.

Access them here for athletes, and here for coaches. You will be prompted to sign up for Athlete365.
