Our aim is to ensure safe and secure EYOF event to all involved


Finland is generally a safe and well organised country. The community security regulations are strict and they are demanded when organised such events.


EYOF OC (City of Tampere, Regional Sports Organisation HLU and FIN NOC) is working closely with the national and local authorities to achieve safe and secure EYOF Tampere 2009 event.

Security in Olympic village and competition venues

In all EYOF events and at OLV there will be enough doorkeepers who will be in charge of the order, safety, traffic control and access controls at the entrances. If their measures are not enough, they will call the police to help. At OLV and the accommodation premises the guarding is handled by the professional security firms. The OLV is guarded during the whole EYOF time, 24 hrs 7 days a week.


Accreditation card with the microchip will be checked at the four accommodation units, at OLV restaurants, on the buses, at the amusement area and also on some other doors at OLV. On other places there will be volunteers checking the rights of the accreditation card.

The Security Managers for the event are Mr. Esa Koivisto and Mr. Harri Appelroth

Every sports event has also own security manager who will be in charge of security at the sports venue.


For every venue and to OLV there will be made security policy and all the volunteers will also get training in security matters.
