The intention is to respond to the needs and discomfort of teenagerswhich the pandemic blew up, in the way that Uisp Rimini knows best: through sport. It is with this spirit that the project was born Sports for Nature which involves the performance of sports activities from March to May in outdoor parks throughout the province of Riminiso quite free.
The activities will be conducted by Uisp qualified sports educators and are aimed at boys and girls born between 2007 and 2010.
The project includes outdoor multisport afternoons with mixed activities different from lesson to lesson that will take place once a week with meetings for 2 hours each until May, in 15 different parks in the province of Riminiby a maximum number of 20 participants per park.
The activities will differ from lesson to lesson: skate, rugby, spartan race, basketball and much more.
The project is free for the kids who participatethanks to the support of Conad points of sale in the Rimini area who subsidized him “Because sport is an essential element for everyone’s health, and no one should be deprived of it”as the president Uisp Rimini said Mariagrazia Squadrani.
the inscriptions will open on February 14 and they can be done exclusively in the Conad stores in the Rimini area participating in the initiativewithin which, starting from the date indicated, billboards will be posted and postcards distributed through which it will be possible to register
The project was carried out, in addition to the support of the Conad stores, with the patronage from AUSL of Romagnafrom the Province of Rimini and gods Municipalities of Rimini, Bellaria, Cattolica, Coriano, Misano, Novafeltria, Riccione, San Clemente, Verucchio and Santarcangelo.
An important project, with which Uisp Rimini “He wants to give a signal to the institutions: I don’t know if we need you or if you need us” he has declared Lino Cellihistoric president of Uisp and currently vice president, “What is certain is that we are here, we are here and we are ready to collaborate”.
The Councilor for Youth Policies of the Municipality of Rimini is ready to respond, Francesca Mattei: “For us, sport is really important, as a municipal administration we have invested to encourage outdoor physical activity and give all citizens the opportunity to exercise. And this would not be possible without the help of the local sports associations, including Uisp Rimini. The younger group requires an initiative of this type, we truly believe in the potential of projects like this “.
The councilor of the province of Rimini follows the same line Manuela Guaitoli: “Teenagers have been most affected by the anguish of the pandemic, confined to their rooms with their computers. Sport that will reactivate normal in children, a very precious normality, is fine. The province is close to these initiatives “.
The collaboration of ASL Romagna, which sponsored the project, is precious. Giuseppe Attisanireferent Asl Romagna of the Sports Medicine Service of Rimini stated: “Adolescence is particularly critical: it’s the age when kids don’t follow the rules. Sport instead gives them points of reference, a regulation to follow, figures to imitate. This by Uisp is a particularly important and fundamental project for this age group. Furthermore, sport does not see discrimination: it is a very powerful tool. Which in this case is offered free of charge. We are delighted with this collaboration ”.
Manuela Clayssetnational head of Gender Policies and Uisp rights, Uisp contact person for Environmental Policies: “We have all discovered the importance of doing outdoor activities with the pandemic. This is how Sportivi per Natura was born and Rimini is a forerunner in this genre. It is necessary to re-appropriate urban spaces, with respect, but living them. And I thank Conad who is a travel companion for Uisp ”.
And in fact it is Conad that has allowed Uisp Rimini to create Sportivi per Natura: “Uisp has given us the opportunity, with this project, to bring our slogan People Beyond Things. We are proud to carry out this project that matches our idea of sport, wellness, health, nutrition “ he commented Patrizia Cellirepresenting the Conad.
