Sport Centre started the “Treasure Seeking” Program in 2006/2007 school year. Aim of this program is to select talented children and to school them into any sections of the Sport School. Application of the sport anthropometric software and professional system developed by mDurance helps considerably to reach this aim.
During the anthropometric measuring, 24 physical data (body height in cm, body weight in kg, elbow width, etc.) are recorded manually. From the data calculated from the above-mentioned data, it is possible to specify the most fitting sport of a little sporter in which he or she can be the most successful in the future.
The agreement between the two parties includes the sport anthropometric measuring of the children participating in the “Treasure Seeking” Program this November. Further aim of the agreement is to spread these scientific based measures in Eastern Hungary and in the border region.
