and almost 400 children from 263 elementary schools all over Serbia took part.
The project
"Yettel - With Speed to the Stars", implemented by the Serbian
Athletics Federation and Yettel, aims to make elementary school students aware
of the importance and beauty of sports, a healthy lifestyle, the importance of
physical activity for their proper development, and promote athletics as a
basic sport.
"Through
this project, we wanted to emphasize true values, that participation,
socializing and mutual support are as important as winning, both in sports
competitions and in life. We believe that it is important to look for balance
in everyday life and that children should be encouraged to play sports from an
early age. Congratulations to our golden stars, but also to all children who
took part in the eighth cycle of the "Full Speed to the Stars"
project, said Marija Vujanić, Communications and Sustainability Director at
Yettel.
The organizers
also prepared diverse accompanying content within the event. Various workshops
and training grounds for participants were organized, including a promotional
race for Serbian athletes.
