The Fehérvár Hockey Academy (FEHA19) and Óbuda University have signed a cooperation agreement to help each other in sports science research and the development of a long-term career model – said Prof. Dr. Levente Kovács, Rector of Óbuda University.
The event on 29 February was attended by Dr. András Cser-Palkovics, Mayor of Óbuda and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Rudolf Kalman Foundation for Óbuda University.
In the future, the Fehérvár Hockey Academy (FEHA19) and the Alba Regia Faculty of Arts of Óbuda University will work together for the athletes and students in several areas. The parties have agreed to support each other’s work, so that the academy’s athletes can participate in individual curriculum and in the university’s athletics programme.
At Óbuda University, hockey players will also have the opportunity to prepare for life after sport, as there is a sports economics course available. As part of the agreement, science could also play a role in the coaching of athletes, in the training of young players and even in the evaluation of their performance on the pitch.
The signing ceremony was attended by Mayor Dr. András Cser-Palkovics, Prof. Dr. Levente Kovács, Rector of Óbuda University, Prof. Dr. Györök György, Dean of the University, and on behalf of Fehérvár Hockey Academy (FEHA19) István Fekti, CEO and id. Gábor Ocskay, President of the Board of Trustees.
