After a presentation of two weeks ago, in italian elementary school Galileo Galilei, today 07.03.2019. MOK UMAG-CPM UMAGO (man volleyball club Umag), has carried out the second annual presentation of volleyball as a sport, for the first to fourth grade students of croatian elementary school „Marija and Lina“.
MOK Umag-CPM Umago for the fourth consecutive year, holds a volleyball presentation twice a year in primary schools in Umag, as foreseen in the club’s annual work programs.
During the presentation, were shown the basics of the technique of this sport, with lots of fun and games. The purpose of the presentation is to bring this sport closer to our youngsters, since in the last 15 years this sport has become increasingly involved in the sports family of the city of Umag.
Except for the women’s volleyball club OK Umag-CP Umag, in our city for 7 years the man’s volleyball club MOK UMAG-CPM UMAGO is active too, which together already have more than 160 members of all ages. These presentations have the task of pedagogical work with the younger generations, because in today’s highly developed society, sport has become a categorical imperative, which has a direct impact on the social, economic and health profile of the community. This promotion confirms the efforts of Umag, after the appointment by the European Commission, the European capital of sport for 2018, to allow all his citizens to practice sport in order to build a healthy lifestyle and athletic development.
The
presentation was conducted by our expert coach (MOK UMAG coach), Mr. Dragan
Salapura, in the presence of lower grade teachers of the schools.
Thanks to this, we would like to thank’s the director of the school Mrs Sanja
Zakinja, and the teachers who have been available (as every year) to help this
initiative.
