My Assistants
In BC3 category of Boccia, each player is allowed to be assisted by a Sport Assistant, who will remain in the Player’s box, but who must keep his back to court, and eyes averted from play. The Sport Assistant assists the player by moving the ramp with which the ball is propeled, as well as for any other need of the athlete. The offer of the Sport Assistant of course, does not begin at the start of the games. A Sport Assistant is necessary in each and every training, and he must be familiarized with the player, since he has no right of speaking to the athlete, and his actions are complementary to those of the athlete. Usually, the person who plays the role of the athlete’s Sport Assistant comes from the close family circle, and most of the times their care for the athlete surpasses their duties as far as the game is concerned.
From the time I started playing Boccia, the role of my Sport Assistant is played by my father Daniel Polychronidis and my godfather Thomas Chabazi. These two beloved persons of mine are also responsible for my equipment, and together with my coach Mr. George Tzimas, are with me in every training and in each effort of improvement and they constitute the greatest factor of my athletic course.
