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.

Famous quotes containing the words sports and/or schools:
“It was so hard to pry this door open, and if I mess up I know the people behind me are going to have it that much harder. Because then there’s living proof. They can sit around and say, “See? It doesn’t work.” I don’t want to be their living proof.”
—Gayle Gardner, U.S. sports reporter. As quoted in Sports Illustrated, p. 87 (June 17, 1991)
“Absolute catholicity of taste is not without its dangers. It is only an auctioneer who should admire all schools of art.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
