“I express my full gratitude to all our national associations all the young players who participated in the Project and especially to our hard-working fellow coaches for their diligent and dedicated work. They made a great contribution to the success of this common Project. Special thanks to our friend and colleague Samet POLAT who designed and coordinated this Project. This Project has shown and proved that even in such specific situations we can achieve great results.

I am sure that the overall experience from this Project will be a good base for some new ideas which I already have in my plans for the future.

“I’m very happy for the opportunity to support this fine project by the Turkish TTA and ETTU during these challenging times. It was a good action to activate some of our best young players in Europe together and a rare opportunity to bring them and also us coaches closer together which for sure we all will benefit from for the future”.

“By the situation we face at the moment that we have to accept and respect it new challenges and adaptations are required. The content of the coaches was extremely important. As a coach I learned a lot from all the members of the coaching team so I can imagine in 2 weeks what kids have learned…i hope they took this opportunity for each one for them’s growth because EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE even when you have to “stay at home.” Besides these hard times focus must go on. Very challenging experience for me thanks to my Association on giving me this opportunity and to all players coaches CEGNAR and Samet.”

 

 

 

Omer GENDLER

 

“I had great time working with the European young players. They were very cooperative and highly motivated. This webcamp was a good example of how European coaches and players can work together. This is the way for our continent to become better and stronger. I hope everyone got the message: even in limited conditions you can still improve.”

 

 

 

Sergio VIERA

 

“It was an excellent and original iniciative. I believe that it wasn’t easy to make this webcamp happen and for this reason I congratulate everyone specially Samet and Neven.

I would like to add that one of the most important things that improved these sessions were the tips given by Neven allowing the sessions to get better day by day. I believe that all the coaches learned and took something new from this experience.”
