THE NOCs' BEST PRACTICES
This webpage aims at describing successful practices on which NOCs sent in information in relation with various of their fields of activity – for instance, Olympic Education, Sponsoring, Development, Athletes' Preparation for the Olympic Games, etc. – so that it may be a source of inspiration for other NOCs who can eventually adapt it to their own case. ANOC will post the best communications received from the NOCs or Continental Associations, which must be sent to the attention of the Secretary General of ANOC, at the ANOC headquarters in Paris, preferably in digital format. The topics proposed by NOCs and currently available are : October 2009 – NOC of Indonesia – Training for Children Programme The Indonesian Olympic Committee has recently completed a programme entitled "Strength and Conditioning for the Elementary School Children of Indonesia", funded by Olympic Solidarity's Sport For All programme. The exercices used in the programme aim at developing the physical strength and fitness of children aged 7 to 14; they have been designed to require minimal, easily available equipment such chairs, benches, mats, etc., so that they can be practiced by the greatest possible number of children.
