Love this! Research shows that there is already a large socio-economic divide when it comes to access to sport and rising cost of participation is a major barrier. I love this innovative approach and novel research into reducing the cost of sports wheelchairs. Anything we can do to reduce the cost of sport participation will reflect directly in retention and participation numbers. https://lnkd.in/gsVskg7i #sportforlife #sportforall #fortheloveofsport

Transforming Jefferson County: The Birth of FCSO's FAT to Fit Olympic Games (FTFOG) In 2011, the small yet determined community of Jefferson County, Mississippi, faced a startling revelation. A local news broadcast on WJTV Channel 12, coupled with an in-depth report from the Clarion Ledger Jackson newspaper, declared Jefferson County as "the fattest county in America." This eye-opening moment became the catalyst for a transformative journey led by the Fayette Community Service Organization (FCSO), spearheaded by Mr. Anthony Edwards and Mrs. Janell Westley-Edwards. A Wake-Up Call and a Vision The news struck a chord with the Edwards, who had recently attended the Global Obesity Summit in Jackson, MS. Inspired by the summit’s call to action and armed with a wealth of knowledge, they returned to Jefferson County with a renewed sense of purpose. They saw the health crisis in their community not as a deterrent but as an opportunity to ignite change and promote a culture of wellness. The Birth of FAT to Fit Olympic Games In response to the alarming health statistics, FCSO created the FTFOG The inaugural FTFOG began modestly at the community multi-purpose center with just 60 registered participants. The enthusiasm and engagement it garnered were overwhelming, prompting a move to larger venues in subsequent years, including the Jefferson County Elementary School gymnasium and eventually the Davey Whitney HYPER Complex at Alcorn State University. Remarkable Achievements Over the years, FTFOG has achieved remarkable milestones: - Conducted 15,883 free health screenings. - Awarded 1,101 new bicycles. - Distributed approximately $12,100 in cash prizes, health equipment, health gear, and apparel. - Attracted participants from 13 Mississippi counties and six states nationwide. - Engaged four local municipalities as official members of the FAT to Fit Family network, including Jefferson County Board of Supervisors and the City of Vicksburg. A Call to Action FCSO invites community members, local businesses, and media outlets to join in this transformative journey. The FTFOG is more than an event; it is a movement towards a healthier, happier future for all. Together, we can combat childhood obesity and promote wellness in every corner of our communities.

How should athletes be represented in sports governance? At SportAccord 2024, #FIFPRO's Alexandra Gómez Bruinewoud joined Andreas Zagklis (FIBA), Emilio Garcia Silvero (FIFA), Áine Power (Federation Equestre Internationale (FEI)), and Florian Yelin (World Players Association) to debate the topic. The group explored two primary models for athlete representation: internal and external. Internal representation involves athletes as formal members of the governing body, with voting rights within the decision-making body. External representation refers to models where players are represented by a body that is external and independent, but negotiates with the governing body. Alexandra underscored the importance of independent athlete representation through player unions, highlighting the power of negotiation over mere consultation. Ultimately, though, the consensus was clear: athletes should have the freedom to choose the representation model that aligns best with their needs. #WhereSportMeets #SportAccord
