Traditionally, at the end of the football holidays, the children received diplomas of the project participant, as well as sweet gifts from the education department, and the participating schools - sports equipment.

We remind you that for the second year in a row the format of the "Open Football Lessons" has been adapted to the norms of the anti-epidemic regime and social distancing. Thanks to the creativity of volunteers who were trained the day before, a contactless form of work was organized and the simultaneous stay of children on the playgrounds was limited.
