    Ausschreibung der YOUTH SAILING & WATERSPORT CHALLENGE 2017 Bundesleistungszentrum Neusiedl am See 27.08.2017 – 03.09.2017 (Teil 1 – Youth Sailing 2017) 08.09.2017 – 10.09.2017 (Teil 2 – Watersport & SUP Challenge 2017) Ein M.K. Kooperationsprojekt des Allgemeinen Sportverband Österreichs (ASVÖ) und des Österreichischen Segelverbandes (OeSV), gefördert aus Mitteln des BSFF Zentrale Strategie und Projekthintergrund: Unter Einhaltung der im OeSV – Nachwuchskonzept INSPIRE 24 für Phase 1 und 2 vorgegebenen Zielsetzungen ist eine zusätzliche Verstärkung für die Umsetzung des Bereiches der segelsportlichen Vielseitigkeitsentwicklung immer wichtiger geworden. Speziell die teilweise fehlende Ausstattung an notwendigen Ausbildungsmaterialien in den Segelklubs und deren entsprechenden Einsatzmöglichkeiten benötigen neue Wege der Demonstration und Präsentation. Im österreichischen Segelsport ist die Anzahl der segelnden Jugendliche überschaubar. Die traditionellen Trainingsformen (vgl. einseitig) halten viele potentielle Nachwuchsegler von einem Engagement im Segel / Regattasegelsport ab. Auch viele Segelvereine in Österreich haben das Problem zu weniger Kinder / Jugendlicher für ihre Nachwuchsarbeit. Diese Projekt soll durch seine Vielseitigkeit, das neue innovative Format, durch die gebotene Auseinandersetzung mit „actionreichen“ Bootsklassen 29er, 49erFX, TopCat K1, Hobie Dragoon & Hobie16, Kite Surfen , Surfen, etc. Auch der „Schnuppercharakter“ sollte helfen Zugangsbarrieren zu vermindern.
