On 12.05.2022 Municipal enterprise "Youth Center Plovdiv" hosted a football tournament on the occasion of Bulgarian Sports Day, which is celebrated every year on May 17, with the aim of recognizing the successes of local athletes.
Our educational Roma mediators, Doni and Princessa, held an informal activity with lots of smiles, movement and games for young people from the village of Shishmantsi and the town of Peruštitsa, accompanied by their leaders. The participants not only played sports, but also learned useful facts about Bulgarian sports figures and their successes. They also got acquainted with the "Alley of Olympic Glory", created on the initiative of the Center in 2019.
Some of the participants shared that they dream of becoming successful soccer players one day and embarked on a sporting adventure. They believe that an athlete's success follows many years of hard work and dedication.
We wish them to persistently follow their dreams, as now, and one day to represent Bulgaria at world tournaments and competitions.
The activity was implemented as part of the project "Youth center Plovdiv - a powerful factor for local development" under the program "Local development, poverty reduction and improved inclusion of vulnerable groups", financed by the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area 2014-2021.
