The Educamp is an initiative that shines not only for the contents and the spirit that animates it, but also because it allows us to collaborate with four other companies in the area. With Educamp, sport makes a team: a beautiful and winning idea ». The Educamp Coni are multidisciplinary sports centers aimed at young people aged between 6 and 14 who in the summer have the opportunity to experiment with different motor, pre-sports and sports activities, with innovative training methodologies and strategies, adapted to the different age groups. “Italy has restarted, Italian sport has restarted – continues the regional president of Coni, Dino Ponchio, who at the press conference also got on a footbike, a new sporting discipline presented in Roncade by the national president, Andrea De Lazzari – The Educamp has great significance, also cultural: the watchword is multidisciplinarity, the combination of different. In Veneto there are 63 Educamps, Roncade’s is a virtuous example. We want to make young people fall in love with sport: whoever has the desire and ability will perhaps arrive at the Olympics. But we are interested above all in the educational goal ».

Instead it is essential. I started practicing gymnastics when I was six, I was crazy about this sport, but I knew that if I got a bad grade in school I would have to give up going to the gym. I have always kept this teaching within me. Sport is truly the tool that allows us to be better people and to better face the difficulties of life »concludes Cassina.
