Sports Boarding Schools
A number of Olympic Reserve schools are sports boarding schools (Russian: спорт-интернат). Children live, study and receive advanced sports training there. Sports boarding schools can be either one sport oriented or multisports. In those schools children spend most of their time off studying practicing sports or perfecting certain skills.
One of the advantages is access to high-level professional coaching for children from remote villages and towns while having relatively cheap boarding, meals and education. Sports boarding schools provide the best sports training possible.
