Imagine...
You, your friends,
And your children
Going abroad to play, to train,
And learn a new language.

Imagine...
having fun and learning about Europe through sport:
its principles and its values.

Imagine...
Going from Rome to London,
From Amsterdam to Barcelona,
Practicing your favourite sport.

Imagine...
An Erasmus Sports Programme.

    Background

    Purposes

    Scope

    The "coalition"

    Best practices

    Pilot project

      Some pilot projects will be established involving:

      4 amateur clubs (football, basketball, handball, volleyball, and so on) from 4 different countries to take part in summer or winter camps for some weeks.

      They will be hosted by one of the clubs with the support of the relevant municipality.

      The Athletes will be participating to a tournament and - at the same time - will follow other educative and training activities such as (i) language courses, (ii) seminars and (iii)workshops which would fit the Commission’s priorities in relation to social inclusion, fight against doping, violence, racism, etc.

      Most exchanges would also have to take place in pre-season / summer, so that normal seasons would not be affected.

      If you and your club want to take part to a pilot project please write to Michele Colucci at info@colucci.eu
