The women’s walking basket tournament was a real success!
After the 2 technical training sessions for walking basket athletes and refereers, the tournament was held! There were 8 teams: ArmaniComio, Addo#we#fusc, Incompresi, Secorromuoio, Benemanonbenissimo,Arrosto e tiro, Orlando Tragica, Vorreimanonposso.
It was really great because many many people of 50’s participated with enthusiasm and passion. The winner was Vorreimanonposso!!
It wasn’t just a day of sport and fun, but of community. Over 50 people have discovered the pleasure of spending time together playing sports, taking care of their physical and mental health and having fun!
Thanks to Angiulli for the organization and collaboration. Together we did a great job and all people were happy and enthusiastic to have participated in this day of sport, wellbeing and promotion of mental and physical activity! Walking sports are an excellent way of staying fit and healty that contributes to promote an increased sense of the value of healty and active lifestyle of elderly.
And thanks to all for the enthusiastic participation.The best result of this activity is that the teams that have been formed have no intention of stopping, on the contrary! They have already organized themselves to train and play together and we are so proud of this that we at MSV are already organizing 3 tournaments. Our objective is to make basketball structural with training sessions, matches and tournaments!
