Children received important knowledge about safe behavior during wartime and reinforced the information in a familiar, game-like format. Coaches taught them to be attentive, focused, and to respond appropriately to potential danger.

Parents of young athletes also consider such trainings important and observe the training sessions. Coaches have already visited the city of Zmiiv not for the first time, but since last year, refugees from the conflict zone have arrived in the city, so children need both physical and psychological adaptation.
