It is important to have a great team of buddies. We visited the Judo Club Lika, where its coaches had ensured, in this summer heat, pleasant outdoor training sessions in early morning hours, or during dusk. As one can see, everybody’s training diligently, so even those children who are not on the seaside are having fun training. Get involved in the Choose Sport project and find your own judo buddies!
The goal of the project Choose Sport is mass inclusion of children into sport, and the creation of habits of long term involvement with sport. The project addresses the general population of school children, but its target group are children in adverse social standing and thus in risk of social exclusion (children with unemployed parents, whose parents receive children’s benefits, without appropriate parenting, those from single parent families, from families with three or more children, and those children with behavioral issues). The children are given free memberships in the judo clubs of the Zagreb Judo Union: the judo club “Lika“ and the judo club “Zagreb,“ where they also receive free sports equipment – a judo kimono.
The implementation of the project is co-financed by EU, from the European Social Fund.
