Progress in the implementation of project activities, as well as in the achievement of its financial goal on GlobalGiving, has been scarce due to the outbreak of COVID-19 and the restrictions imposed by the Italian government since March 3 to date. Despite some activities have recently restarted in sports clubs, trainings are only held on an individual basis andaand team sport practice ostis still not allowed. more in particular the project target group, i.e. youth with disabilities, have not yet been reintegrated fully indin the clubs activities to their limited ability to respect social distancing measures and their (in some cases) higher degree of physical vulnerability.
The funds raised have been fundamental to get some of the equipment foreseen including preventive kits.
We look forward to starting implementation at a full scale very soon.
