We are excited to present to you a program designed to bring a healthy balance to the lives of our children and those who guide them. This program is called “Practical Learning to Advance Youngsters in Sport” (PLAYS) and is the result of collaboration among 9 partners from 7 countries within the ambitious Erasmus project.
The three sports selected for the pilot program – roller-skating, swimming, and gymnastics – have been carefully chosen to cover various aspects of the physical and mental development of children. Through these sports, we aim to provide children with the opportunity to discover their passions, improve their skills, and build self-confidence.
It is supported by 10 directions of physical, mental, and emotional development, each addressed professionally by a team of specialists from 7 European countries
Each direction has been meticulously structured to contribute to the holistic development of children aged 6 to 12. We consider not only the physical aspects but also the mental and emotional ones to ensure a complete balance in their evolution.
PLAYS is not just a sports program; it is also a powerful tool for parents, coaches, and educators. We aim to support the active participation of children in regular physical activities to contribute to their psychophysical well-being and social development. In this regard, we have created a step-by-step action plan based on scientific research, targeting the stimulation of children’s interest and enthusiasm for movement
We are eager to share this exciting journey into the world of physical activity for children with you. Through PLAY, we bring play and health to the forefront of their lives, and we are confident that this initiative will bring long-term benefits for future generations.
Let’s make movement an integral part of the lives of our children!
