Through the present project, LEVSKI-Sport for all and its partners (Pontevecchio and Panserraikos), with the support of the European Multisport Club Association, aim to promote regular sport activities of adolescents (age 7-12 y.o.) in a school environment. The 3 cities Sofia, Bologna and Serres in fact, define increment of the number of inactive children, which motivate us to create this project. We count on fun and enjoyment as a tool of the project, in line with active live of the citizens guidelines by the European Commission. Our experts will create Guideline training programme (ebook and printed version) with modified rules of athletics games and materials used in the daily life and game of the kids, like sticks, pinecones, ropes, baskets etc., will teach children to think “green”. Engaging in grassroots sports activities we will encourage to build social skills, combat violence, control negative emotions, improve the overall health, attend interest of children to sport athletics using the good example of successful athletes and with the support commitment of local authorities to promote physical activity, and attract children to choose athletic as their own sport. The participation of sports professionals (managers, trainers, coaches, sport teachers) and volunteers in the project, as well as their active participation in transnational meetings will improve their personal level of qualification and knowledge exchanging experience with the other representatives of some of the largest sports organizations in Europe. 35 - Trainers, sport teachers and volunteers; 45 - FUNNY school trainings events for children (7-12 y.o.); 300 - Children; 500 - Attenders; 150 –printed FUNNY Guideline 27 EU multisport clubs informed 1 eBook – free usage
