The Online Athletes' Forum that was organized by the Olympic Committee of BiH, during which over 40 participants, current OC BiH scholarship holders and eminent BiH athletes, were educated and exchanged their experiences. During the Forum, athletes had the opportunity to get important information and learn the principles of how to remodel their training in the specific conditions dictated by the COVID-19 pandemic. They were also given quality instructions on how to redesign the principles of sports nutrition and how to adapt them to individual and sports' characteristics. Furthermore, athletes actively expressed their opinions on the measures created by the sport system, unanimously supported them and emphasized that they expect responsible people in BiH to hear their voice and create optimal solutions for sport in BiH.

"This Forum is a nice experience, especially since both former and current athletes participated, and personally,  I like to listen to younger colleagues, because I believe that a person learns throughout the whole life, but I also like to hear the opinions of former athletes. In this difficult time, the Forum is a good incentive, support and a wind in the back to active athletes, because currently this is a tough period for them considering the fact that they eagerly awaited the Olympic Games." said the basketball player Raza Mujanović.

Marijan Kvesić, the Vice President of the Olympic Committeeof BiH, pointed out his satisfaction with the amount of attention, with which the athletes followed this Forum.
