Summer summary
By Maria Saponaro | Volunteer
The project continued to involve several youth including minors, thus expanding the initial target group. The project was praised by the Lazio multisport club and the idea is being scaled up by other clubs and disciplines including American football and teqball, which have designed initiatives with the same scope. Despite donations weren't numerous, our coaches often volunteered, including the core representatives of Lazio hockey. The positive feedback received by the families of the beneficiaries is the greatest recognition and we count on the next season to promote the project more systematically, especially through the direct group involved and our great multisport club, that has now also established a foundation.

Hockey Training sessions have been held whenever possible according and in respect of gubernamental restrictions due to COVID-19. An average of 2 hours of training per week were realised and over 15 new participants enrolled in the program. Thanks to a partnership with circolo canottieri Lazio, some of the sessions are being held there, a very prestigious sport place in Rome. Several videos and pictures were made available at our Facebook page. Here are some of the videos made.

Progress report
By Maria Luisa Saponaro | Volunteer
Despite the covid19 related challenges and restrictions imposed by the Italian government to limit the spread of the virus, Lazio Hockey managed to make remarkable progress in project activities.
1. As soon as it became possibile to start training our specials we put together a team and bought the necessary equipment to start, also thanks to a small regional grant
2. We developed a partnership with circolo canottieri Lazio, located in another area of the city to expand our geographical reach
3. We carried out an entirely virtual press release on 28/10/2020, link attached
4. We recorded a professional video
5. We added a component which will be possible to complete despite covid. An entirely virtual training addressed to coaches on how to cope with disabilities. A professor from Bocconi university decided to support us and we'll be able to disseminate the product to the whole Lazio multisport club thus improving scaling up potential and impact.
