Abstract: | The Marqos Method is a procedure based on specific communication techniques and behavioural reworking, particularly based on rugby principles and applied to the socio-educational-sports field, through working with individuals towards significantly increasing their physical and intellectual capabilities. The main aim of this Method is to establish the life approach system by developing methods, ways and rules, which are necessary for people with physical and intellectual limitations to face life in an innovative, resilient and autonomous way. Through this guidebook and the fruit of our experience and work with athletes of different capabilities, we do not intend to delve deep into any particular technical aspects involved in coaching sessions with the players. Rather, rugby is simply used as a tool that allows us to be exposed to rules which we face in everyday life. The reason being, that this provides greater awareness and understanding of these dynamics for athletes, especially children. The aim is not to expect anything that may go beyond our capabilities, but rather it is a path we walk together, which may be enhanced by whoever wishes to offer their professional contribution to the text with the aim of improving the work to be carried out by the players. For this reason, the readers are invited to note down those aspects which you would like to share with other coaches and rugby players of this community. We like to consider this book as an aid for those who want to help; as support for all those who would like to offer athletes who have a disability, a unique approach to face life and its ups and downs. It can act as support as in rugby, especially for parents and educators. |
