These recommendations are intended for youth workers, sports professionals, event organizers, as well as families themselves and the general public. They represent a powerful tool through which we can positively influence the engagement in physical activities and sports within the broader community. The recommendations offer the adaptation of activities based on the diverse physical abilities of individuals, catering to both older and younger family members.
The purpose of the Recommendations is to encourage physical activities and sports participation for entire families, from the youngest to the oldest members, and assist families in choosing activities based on their abilities.

This time, as part of the EURIDE project, we headed to a race in France. Four students from Ravne High School raced with the “King Matjaž’s Chariot” – a pedal car they have already built for the previous race in Holice, Czech Republic.
This time, the first race took place on Saturday, September 23rd in Ornans, and the second one on Sunday, September 24th in Valentigney. Both races were part of the European championship, and in addition to the French, Italians, Czechs, and Slovenians also participated. Ornans had a total of 30 teams competing, while Valentigney had two less. Congratulations to all the French participants who ended up on the podium, which was not surprising since pedal car racing is recognized as a sport in France, and the racers are often skilled cyclists.
We are thrilled to have the opportunity to be part of the EURIDE project, whose main goal is to expand activities related to pedal cars, strengthen organizations already involved in these activities, and, through organizing races, show people, especially the youth, that pedal car racing is a fun and healthy activity that offers new skills and the opportunity to connect with people across Europe.
Within the EURIDE project, we have one more race ahead, scheduled for April 20, 2024, at Vista Park near Lake Velenje. This will be the first pedal car race in Slovenia, and the APGA Institute is excited to organize this opening event. We look forward to your visit!
