The National Research Program "Sports" clearly defines the goal of developing excellence in research in health and sports science, strengthening the connection between research and sports, developing a data-based scientific and analytical base for sports, creating new knowledge and approaches, as well as strengthening the capabilities of material sciences and medicine to promote sustainability and efficiency in sports. The program sets out tasks that cover various research directions - innovative and technological solutions, health and functioning monitoring, as well as training approaches to improve the achievements of different groups of athletes, as well as evaluate the impact of sports on the national economy. These tasks require a complex and interdisciplinary solution. This project application is a joint proposal of five Latvian universities and, according to the tasks of the program, project activities are planned in specific work packages (WP) with several sub-tasks. The aim of this project is to develop innovations for promoting sports achievements, methods for athletes' health, functional abilities, training methodologies and, to improve the effectiveness of results, to develop a methodology for identifying sports infrastructure and collecting statistical indicators.
