In Slovenj Gradec, as part of the Erasmus+ project FAIR PLAY, a youth exchange took place, attended by a total of 30 young people from six countries: Poland, Romania, Portugal, Turkey, Greece, and Slovenia.
The main activity of this exchange was football competitions, which followed the principles of Fair Play. This means that the points earned by a team were not just from scoring goals but also from the behavior of the players towards their teammates and the opposing team. Behaving within the framework of Fair Play rules was based on:
- Sincerity
- Mutual respect
- Mutual support
- Nonviolent communication
- Equality
Participants in the exchange gained new knowledge about Fair Play rules, and, above all, deepened their awareness of their own morality and the importance of Fair Play values through practicing these rules.
Fair Play rules are not relevant only in sports but also in everyday life. We dedicated a special workshop to this topic, where young people explored how to incorporate Fair Play values into their daily lives.
Participants also presented the history and culture of the countries they come from, and traditional food, music, and dance were not amiss.
The Fair Play exchange will remain a fond memory for us, and we would like to thank all the project partners and youth exchange participants for their collaboration.
