Celebrating Inclusion: Speyer Judo Sports Club Receives State Award

Speyer / Rhine-Neckar Metropolitan Region News – Not only sporting successes are celebrated in the judo sports club. We are proud and happy with our inclusion participants about the INpuls award from the State Sports Association for inclusive projects.

On Tuesday evening there was reason to celebrate at Judomaxx. The ID judoka (ID = intellectual disability) had successfully completed their belt tests and were now proud to receive the certificate. The joy was so contagious that everyone joined in the cheers. The Speyer judo sports club also received the INpuls award from the state sports association for inclusive projects. Inclusion pilot Evi Weis found out about the Speyer Judo Sports Club’s offerings: sports and play groups, judo groups, motor-pedagogical support groups for children, an open girls’ club for young women with intellectual disabilities. In total, around 150 people with disabilities regularly use the club’s services. Inclusion does not just mean creating offers for people in need of support, but also enabling encounters, breaking down inhibitions on both sides and strengthening the family community within the club. The best way to do this is to celebrate, laugh and do sports together.

Thanks to the INpuls bonus from the state sports association, the club can continue to focus on the needs of people with disabilities in the future. They want to be involved in social life: the judoka want to go to competitions, the sports and play group likes to go out for ice cream together, the girls’ group wants to go to the cinema in the spring. What we take for granted is a huge challenge for people with intellectual disabilities. Together with friends and a little support you can do it, and it’s fun too!
