Within the Choose Sport project, the physical education teacher and a black belt bearer, Vladimir Merslavić, is the leader of the project plan and training programme. He has visited all four areas where the project is being implemented, and verified the manner of managing judo trainings. He adjusted his viewpoints with coaches and agreed to further consultations in connection to the continuation of training our beginner and advanced groups.

The goal of the project Choose Sport is mass inclusion of children into sport and the creation of the habits of long term of doing sports. The project addresses the general population of school children, while the target group are children in adverse social standing, thereby at risk of social exclusion (children whose parents are unemployed, whose parents are beneficiaries of children’s benefits, without appropriate parental care, from single parent families and families with three or more children and with behavioural issues), who are given free training in the clubs of the Zagreb Judo Union: the judo club “Lika“ and the judo club “Zagreb,“ where they also receive free sports gear – a judo kimono.

The implementation of the project is co-financed by the European Union from the European Social Fund.
