How do we start up?
Answers to the most typical questions, that you consider as a Club..
knowledge-about

With special sport courses
execution
Now we do it!
Do it yourself or let us help you
Target group
Let it be broad and diverse – across different types of special needs. The group becomes more harmonious and better balanced when not everyone is challenged in the same areas. Later you can define more precisely when you see who is involved.
Coaches & volunteers

Then we make visits and school collaborations .. the goal is to start with a few participants and slowly build up to 10-15 participants after a year. It is not an advantage to start many at one time!
Startup
Now a welcome gift for the new members must be found! Like a t-shirt or something else cool with the club logo on .. in general, this team can not get too many gifts and medals.
Inclusion & club life
First, work with the participants and the good energy internally on the team and with the coaching staff. After a year, work must be done systematically to find good ways in which the team can contribute to the large community in the club through visibility, participation and volunteering. Still on very special terms, depending on opportunities and competencies ..
