To prepare for the game with children, an interesting modern movement with musical accompaniment was performed. Then they were divided into six groups, after which they moved to the sectors into which the football field was divided. In each sector, coaches were waiting for them - volunteers who organized various games, sports relays, and competitions. Moving from one sector to another, the children were included in the psychologist sector and the security sector. Communication with the psychologist was very interesting, the children enjoyed solving psychological situations and performing psychological exercises. No less interesting was the security sector, where they learned safe behavior in wartime under the guidance of a policeman.
