The authors present details of operation of sport academies during and after corona pandemic for players 10-year old or younger concentrating on three sports (gymnastics, tennis and football). Changes in infrastructure are proposed to minimize close encounters of players. Players are to be admitted to academy after negative coronavirus test. Upon arrival players are given health and hygiene inspections. Standard Operating Procedures are put forward to prevent catching and spread of the disease, which include physical distancing, hygiene and healthy practices, proper dosages of vitamins C and D as well as maintenance of weight according to height. Height and weight of players are to be monitored twice a year and quantitative profiles are generated along with specific recommendations for the following 6 months to pick up height and put on or shed off weight. Safe and prohibited time slots for obtaining sun exposure to get the required dose of vitamin D are suggested as part of growth and obesity roadmaps of players. The daily routine should adopt approaches closer to nature, outdoor coaching as well as maximum interaction of body with sunshine and fresh air. Kits for gymnastics, tennis and football are recommended based on technical, practical and cultural considerations, with the consideration that maximum skin is exposed to be able to breathe fresh air and soak the body in sunshine. In order to reduce the number of players at any one time, it is suggested to make the sessions according to build and gender. At the end of each coaching session there is a mandatory presentation session to groom the players.
