There is a lot of focus on the benefits for children and the elderly to participate in club sports, but I don't see the same encouragement for adults. In my opinion, this age group is somewhat forgotten and therefore they should be in focus. As my design object, I have chosen to produce a photo-based magazine with adult athletes as the main area. For the magazine, I have photographed and interviewed individuals between 18-40 who have either started a new sport as an adult or played as a child, stopped and started again as an adult.
The aim of the magazine is to encourage people to start playing sports as adults and to convey that it is not too late to try new sports after turning 18. Many clubs offer adult groups for beginners, and I don't think we speak about them enough. From the athletes' perspective and personal experiences, I want to contribute new information that can encourage others to take the first step and dare to try something new.
