Biathlon for All Brings Together High School Students in Denmark

The Biathlon for All project is making strides in Denmark, where it recently brought together 850 high school students as part of a team-building event to kick off the school year. In late August and early September, these 15-year-olds experienced biathlon firsthand, using the sport to foster new friendships and encourage teamwork at the start of high school. To make this event possible, Biathlon 4 All Denmark developed a specialized IR-Biathlon Education program for instructors, many of whom were new to biathlon and shooting sports. This unique training ensured that instructors were well-prepared to introduce students to the sport in a safe and engaging way. This initiative demonstrates how biathlon can serve as a powerful tool for building connections and creating memorable experiences for young people in Denmark.
