craft and sport in dialogue

This initiative testifies to an increasingly important trend: the connection between craft and sport is becoming increasingly important. > According to an article on hwk-cottbus.de the "Day of the Handwerk" also takes place in September, where more than 800 craftsmen with their families are invited to a celebration. In the Cottbus town hall, honors for silver champions, young champions and business economists are made, while the guest of honor Reiner Calmund accompanies the festivities. Here it becomes clear once again how much team spirit and passion are estimated in both craft as well as in football.

The topics that are relevant in both sport and craft include discipline, technology and assertiveness. They are essential for success in both areas and make it clear that you have to be flexible today.

The importance of training

Did you know that only a small percentage of the talent made the leap into professional sports? Many young athletes could benefit from training in the craft that offers them a safe professional perspective. According to Deutsche-werkszeitung.de it is essential to have a plan B. Christoph Janker from FC Augsburg notes that less than one percent of the talents reach the professional squad. In contrast, training offers a more stable basis for the future.

These perspectives were also shown in an event of the Schwaben Chamber of Crafts, in which numerous young athletes had the opportunity to find out more about different craft professions. Here, parallels between sporting skills and manual skills were drawn. The general manager of the Chamber of Crafts, Ulrich Wagner, emphasizes that the team spirit, who plays a role in sport, is also of great importance in the craft.

So if you come to the Cottbus Chamber of Crafts on July 15, you will not only be given exciting insights into the world of football, but also drawn attention to the importance of a solid professional basis. The event promises to become an educational and entertaining afternoon.
