Olympic Gold Medallist Neeraj Chopra on Monday was the keynote speaker at the National Centre for Sports Science and Research (NCSSR) session on "Olympic Gold In Athletics - A Billion Dream Fulfilled And My Journey," where he not only spoke about his Olympic journey but also how sports as a whole has grown in India, especially when it comes to sports science and biomechcs.Neeraj, who currently training in Finland for the upcoming Athletics World Championships and Commonwealth Games (CWG), attended the session online and said having a team with technical knowledge of Sports Science and Biomechcs helps one grow as an athlete, and give world level performance."I believe to be able to give a world-class performance, things like sports science and biomechcs matter a lot along with your regular training. Further, having knowledge of sports science also helps you understand things like nutrition, diet, recovery, and biomechcs technically. It is only after understanding all of this and more that we are able to progress as an athlete and as a competitor. This is the case for me here and at NSNIS Patiala, where I slowly learn about all of this and am thus able to progress as a player. So having knowledge of Sports Science and Biomechcs helps a lot."NCSSR in collaboration with the Government of Haryana, Sports Authority of India (SAI) and Sports Science and Analytics Centre, IIT Madras is hosting a two-day conference on "Innovative Technological and Sports Sciences Practices for High Performance in Youth Sports" at the ongoing Khelo India Youth Games (KIYG) in Panchkula.With the NCSSR platform, the ministry aims to help athletes not only improve their performance but also avoid injury. To kickstart the initiative the sports ministry has already created 400 posts for sports science specialists, out of which 250 are already working with SAI. The NCSSR will act in the hub and spoke model where SAI centres across the country will act as spoke and input data about athletes to the head office of NCSSR which will act as a hub for research and analysis of the data to help improve athlete performance.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
