Warsaw hosted a two-day coaching course in April.

Sessions covered progressive skill building, warm-up routines and planning of a competition season. Participants also exchanged ideas about running training sessions in public parks.

Community activity depends on national federations, clubs, coaches and volunteers who run sessions and events throughout the year.

The course workbook will be published for all member federations.
