The subsidies will allow the acquisition of advanced biomechanical analysis systems and motion sensors to evaluate athletes' technique. The installation of physiological monitoring equipment and training load management software is also planned. These tools facilitate the collection of objective data, allowing coaches to adjust programs and prevent injuries in high-level athletes.
