"Seeing these young people get ahead in sports shows how a little encouragement can go a long way, especially for the disadvantaged." Dr. Raymond Chan, Group Chairman & CEO of IDT International Ltd, sponsor, Oregon Scientific Youth Sports Scholarship Training Scheme |
The
Oregon Scientific Youth Sports Scholarship Training Scheme creates
marvellous openings for young people who have an inborn love of sport
but are unable to make their dreams a reality for financial reasons.
The scheme brings professional coaching within their grasp and lets
them choose a sport to concentrate on. From golf to windsurfing,
ice skating to triathlon, participants are sponsored so that they
can afford both the training and travelling involved. The Federation is very keen to encourage young people to take exercise, stay healthy and excel in their chosen field. Oregon Scientific are helping us make this possible by sharing our vision. Like us they know how vital fitness is for both physical and psychological well-being. For those from less affluent backgrounds, it can give them that unexpected advantage which makes all the difference - a positive outlook with long lasting effects in both their professional and personal lives.
