On this Monday, July 10, from 10 a.m., young athletes set off to attack the BMX course. One of the many activities offered this year. “We come from Avallon. We’ve been bringing our grandchildren for a few years,” says Martine. With Michel, her husband, they accompany their grandchildren aged 12, 13 and 15. “They don’t go on vacation”, underlines the retiree for whom the Yonne tour sport represents “the place to make friends”. Similar situation for Mélanie and her two children “who find friends of their own”. Even if the eldest, 13, “didn’t want to come. But that evaporates as soon as he is here”, laughs the mother of the family.
With the Green Stadium operation in Auxerre, sport wants to show “beautiful values”
“The opening of the operation is eagerly awaited”
On the organizational side, the organizers are delighted with this new edition. “The opening of the operation is eagerly awaited”, observes Gaëtan Leduc, educator at the Yonne tour sport for five years. Further on, in the Parc du Pâtis, the installation dedicated to BMX is gradually filling up. A sports educator supervises the children under the watchful eye of Romain Lopez, a specialist in this activity. “It’s regulated and at each stand, there is an adult with a diploma in the sport in question”, underlines this sports enthusiast.
Dedicated to young people aged 6 to 17, Yonne tour sport has established itself as an unmissable summer event. The entertainment, varied and free, is an opportunity to discover sports that are sometimes out of the ordinary. From canoeing to archery and climbing, participants will be served.
