Germans help train Vietnamese coaches

A training course run by Achim Ecke from the German National Olympic Committee in a bid to meet international coaching standards is taking place at the National Sports Traning Centre in Hanoi until December 13.

The course, attracting twenty-six Vietnamese coaches, is part of co-operation projects between the committee and the Vietnam Athletics Federation (VAF).

It will provide the attendants a wide knowledge of athletic events and improve their technical skills in educating and motivating young athletes.

“Support from international organizations, such as the German committee, helps Vietnamese track and field develop rapidly and will allow us to achieve high results in international tournaments, said VAF General Secretary Hoang Manh Cuong.”

On behalf of the committee, Ecke handed over some sports equipment to VAF representatives. It is the elite trainer’s second time training local coaches in Vietnam, following a spell in 2006.
