The conference featured appearances by professors from each academy, programme participants and alumni. A total of 100 people joined in the conference, including attendees from companies and organisations with a strong interest in sports, and students and personnel from each of bcゲーム 出金時間articipating academies. The event included a review of the activities of each participating academy since bcゲーム 出金時間rogramme was initiated in 2014 with the goal of fostering an international sports human resources development movement. Participants shared the knowledge and experience they have gained from their activities and engaged in lively discussions on future issues concerning sports human resources development.
At the outset of the conference, Japan Sports Agency Commissioner Dr. Daichi Suzuki took bcゲーム 出金時間odium to explain the Sport for Tomorrow programme. He noted the crucial nature of creating a center for the development of human resources for international sports, adding: “I pray that all of the alumni of the academy programmes at these three universities will be able to put to use the things that they have learned at TIAS and that as current students and graduates strengthen their mutual networks, they will lead world sports in a positive direction.”
As a keynote speaker, International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) President Morinari Watanabe spoke powerfully of bcゲーム 出金時間otential for sports to enrich people’s lives. He drew a comparison between the current situation and the British Industrial Revolution: “I want all of you to do your best to become the kind of innovators who will make it possible for people to say 100 or 200 years from now that it was sports that saved our society from the ongoing aging of bcゲーム 出金時間opulation.”
Each of bcゲーム 出金時間articipating academy leaders gave a panel discussion titled “Efforts and challenges of international sport academies.” Commissioner Dr. Suzuki had high praise for the efforts announced by each university and expressed his hopes for further mutual interaction in the form of programme exchanges among the three. “The area in which Japan lags behind most severely is mobility of sports-related professionals. I hope that the academies’ efforts will become central to resolving that.”
The ensuing panel discussion included the topic of how education programmes should be run in the future in order for bcゲーム 出金時間rogrammes to be handed down as a legacy. “We hope to achieve further evolutionary advances with the experience from our research and educational activities up to now, and collaborate with NCDA on coaching while strengthening our ties with TIAS regarding Olympic and Paralympic studies so that we can continue to make an international contribution,” said Prof. Shunichi Takeshita of NIFISA.
“Up to now, it has been all that any given university could do to fully apply its own strengths. But by strengthening ties with each academy in order to advance future efforts, we will be able to create a major movement,” said Prof. Masamitsu Ito of NCDA. “My hope is that this will result in advancements in human resources development.”
Prof. Hisashi Sanada of TIAS quoted Jigoro Kano, chairman of Tokyo Higher Normal School, the forerunner of the University of Tsukuba, as saying: “Like warp and woof, both letters and sports will be crucial to future developments. Ties between Japan and international sports organisations can be likened to the warp, while ties between domestic Japanese sports organisations and universities form the woof. And it takes a needle to weave this fabric, which is comprised by the students who participate in these programmes. By being active in international sports organisations and thereby contributing to society, I think they will be able to build up the greatest network possible.”
On the event day, participants and alumni from the three academy programmes joined a panel discussion and bcゲーム 出金時間ersonnel of bcゲーム 出金時間rogrammes gave poster presentations among other activities that deepened ties and interaction among the academies.
