The Balance up coordinati-ON project addresses the critical issue of Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) in youth sports. This initiative seeks to raise awareness and build capacity among youth workers and sports organizations to better support young people with DCD. By fostering a network of informed stakeholders, the project aims to create inclusive sports environments that accommodate the needs of all participants.

Key objectives include enhancing the understanding of DCD among educators and coaches, promoting social inclusion, and mapping out local stakeholders who can contribute to the cause. Through targeted campaigns and training sessions, the project not only highlights the challenges faced by youth with DCD but also provides practical strategies for integration into mainstream sports activities.

With a focus on collaboration and knowledge sharing, Balance up coordinati-ON is committed to transforming the perception of DCD in sports and ensuring that all young people have the opportunity to participate fully and confidently.

Throughout the project, continuous monitoring and evaluation ensured that activities were on track and objectives were being met. The development of a comprehensive DCD handbook provided a valuable resource for stakeholders, offering practical tips and strategies for inclusion. Dissemination and exploitation activities were carried out to maximize the reach and impact of the project results. The project fostered a collaborative environment, encouraging the exchange of ideas and best practices among partners, ultimately leading to a more inclusive approach to youth sports and activities.
