The English School on the International Stage: Sharing Expertise in Strength & Conditioning

The English School is proud to share that Panayiotis Papadopoulos, Sports Programme Strength & Conditioning Coach and PE Teacher represented Greece and Cyprus as an invited speaker at an international conference organised by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) in Verona, Italy.

The conference brought together academics, coaches, researchers and sports scientists from around the world to exchange knowledge, research findings and best practices in strength and conditioning.

During the event, Panayiotis delivered a presentation entitled “Strength Training for Children and Adolescents: Safe, Effective and Essential,” which received excellent feedback from the international audience.

His presentation explored the importance of age-appropriate strength training in supporting the physical development, performance and overall wellbeing of children and adolescents, highlighting safe and effective training practices.

Panayiotis also had the opportunity to showcase The English School’s Strength & Conditioning Programme, sharing the School’s approach to supporting students’ long-term athletic development through structured training and evidence-based practices.

We warmly congratulate Panayiotis on this achievement and thank him for his continued dedication to supporting the development and wellbeing of our student-athletes.
