Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs regularly holds weekly table tennis training sessions for military veterans, organised by the Department of Special Physical Training with the active support of the university’s management.
#DSUIA. Adaptive Sports for Veterans. Strength of Spirit. Strength of Body.
Strength of Will. We invite veterans! The training was conducted by Vasyl Koval — Champion of Ukraine, professional coach and active promoter of veteran sports.
During the session, new equipment was used: a trainer for practising the tennis stroke — topspin.
The participants improve their playing technique, practise the accuracy of serves, develop endurance and coordination of movements. Table tennis contributes not only to physical rehabilitation, but also to active social integration, psychological support and the formation of a sense of team unity among veterans.
Such events are an important component of the comprehensive veteran support programme implemented at DSUIA, and confirm the university’s consistent position: those who defended Ukraine deserve proper attention, professional assistance and the opportunity to return to a full and active life.
