Mikko Virtanen: “The Most Important Thing In Junior Coaching Is to Ignite the Love For the Sport”
Ski coach Mikko Virtanen believes that future skiers will be born through versatile exercise and play. Although club exercises should develop a wide range of skills, the main work for the 13-16-year-old and younger skiers is done on their initiative, outside of guided activities and school classes.

Virtanen believes that athletes need the right balance of challenge and praise. Once one goal has been achieved, there should be another to strive for. However, it must be rewarding to ignite the love for the sport.
