The project aims at providing advanced cognitive and mental training to high-level athletes to a number of Ukrainian athletes based on the methodology developed by International Center. The proven benefits of CT and the unfortunate situation Ukrainian sport professionals are facing, inspired International Center to make its methodology available to those athletes that due to the conflict are facing a worsening in their performance or that in general are interested in learning more about CT and feel the need to boost their cognitive skills. The methodology will be adapted to the needs of the participants and implemented throughout the project lifetime. The Ukrainian athletes and coaches will be hosted by the project partners in the occasion of the two training weeks where they will be involved – first in Spain, then in Greece – in the training sessions. The project outcomes will be scientifically evaluated. Lastly, a collection of guidelines on cognitive and mental training will be elaborated to give a Europe-wide resonance to the importance of cognitive and mental training. The involvement of Ukrainian athletes and coaches will be ensured by the presence within the project Consortium of the National Olympic Committee of Ukraine. In a spirit of inclusion and aggregation, and the project's scope will be extended targeting also non-Ukrainian athletes and coaches.
